The increasing integration between gene manipulation and genomics is embraced in this new book, Principles of Gene Manipulation and Genomics, which brings together for the first time the subjects covered by the best-selling books Principles of Gene Manipulation and Principles of Genome Analysis & Genomics. * Comprehensively revised, updated and rewritten to encompass within one volume, basic and advanced gene manipulation techniques, genome analysis, genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics * Includes two new chapters on the applications of genomics * An accompanying website - www.blackwellpublishing.com/primrose - provides instructional materials for both student and lecturer use, including multiple choice questions, related websites, and all the artwork in a downloadable format. * An essential reference for upper level undergraduate and graduate students of genetics, genomics, molecular biology and recombinant DNA technology. An Instructor manual CD-ROM for this title is available. Please contact our Higher Education team at [email protected] for more information. "Principles of Gene Manipulation and Genomics is well written and clearly illustrated throughout, as would be expected from these authors who have considerable experience in this subject."
