Reviews for A Primer of Genome Science, Third Edition
In realizing that the field is unlikely to slow down any time soon, by simply demonstrating that they can keep pace with it, the authors have again succeeded with a well-organized view of the present and future of genome science.
Brian C. Verrelli, The Quarterly Review of Biology
With the huge data sets that are produced in genomic studies, many mathematicians and computer sciences researchers, as well as cell biologists and classical geneticists, are being drawn into working on problems from a genomics perspective, and they will profit greatly from reading this book. The work also provides an affordable introduction that is suited to advanced academic coursework. As in earlier editions, the illustrations, special topic boxes, and hands-on exercises are superb. Highly recommended.
