The two volumes of "Essential Molecular Biology: A Practical Approach" provide clear theoretical and practical guidance to the fundamental techniques of recombinant DNA analysis. Although of particular value to research workers entering the field for the first time, the protocols described will also be of interest to experienced researchers. Volume 1 concentrates on the preparation, purification and handling of nucleic acids, and includes chapters on microbiological procedures and the construction and use of recombinant DNA molecules. Each chapter is written in an accessible style by an acknowledged expert in that field with the emphasis on providing sound technical instruction, in combination with the necessary theoretical background and useful troubleshooting guidance.
