Product Description

Product Description

The author presents a basic introduction to the world of genetic engineering. Some twenty years have passed since the first recombinant DNA molecules were constructed at Stanford University. Genetic engineering is now a reality and this book simply and concisely describes to the student the full range of enabling technologies available. The book takes the reader through basic molecular biology through to chapters dealing with the principles behind working with nucleic acids, together with cloning strategies and the tools of the trade. The author discusses the applications of genetic engineering in a clear and engaging manner. The book is essential reading for first and second year undergraduates, as well as being of interest to sixth form students and their teachers. Medical students and general practitioners will also find this book useful for background information.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book - accurate whirlwind tour of the essentials, 16 Jul 2001
By A Customer
As a newcomer to the field I found this book to be an excellent introductory guide to the fascinating world of genetic engineering.

The author intelligently and effectively communicates both scientific theory and practical aspects of the subject in an easy to read and engaging format.

The book is indispensable reading for anyone who wants to delve into the science of genetic engineering - much better than ploughing through an overbearing textbook.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Introduction to Gentetic Engineering, 24 Oct 2009
By Ripley (Surrey) - See all my reviews
This is a brilliant introduction to Genetic engineering. A very thorough, well written book, that is fairly easy to follow and comprehend. A must for university undergraduates in Biological Sciences, but suitable for anyone with an interest in the subject (although some knowledge of basic genetics would be advantageous).
