| This book is very simple to understand molecular biology work in the lab. Actually, the real advantage of this book is each chapter has an assignment (called "praticum" in this book) and that could be tried to learn DNA work in the lab. This book has included DNA works such as PCR, cloning, transfection (and transformation) and so on, except protein work such as protein purification, SDS-PAGE gel etc.. If any undergraduate student who would like to do independent research or undergrad research, this book would be helpful to figure out what kind of real techniques should be required based on your molecular biology background by your class. |

| I liked this book because I am a lover of animals and I like to read further into them. I especially love cheetahs and in the genetic world, cheetahs are a prime example of a species that genetics can be traced and studied because they were almost wiped out.
It's nicely written, contains interesting genetic facts about the animal kingdom I never would've known.(cheetahs were so badly inbred plus the genetic distance of african lions to asian lions).
I enjoyed the book very much.I would recommend it highly for anyone who has an interest in understanding basic genetics or for someone who is just interested in learning something new. Dr. O'Brien is a wonderful story teller and writes in a language that is easily understandable. He slowly introduces the concepts in an interesting progressive manner which enables the reader to understand the more advanced concepts toward the end of the book. I thought the book was truly fascinating. |

| This is a good book, but the topic is so enormous that the book is too broad and should be more specific. The book is an overview of so many areas and it doesn't go into much detail. A excellent book for someone who is illiterate in human genetics like an undergraduate.
Very good read. Thorough discussion of
underlying science and technology trends.
