The print book comes with a pass key to extra material on the publishers website. I bought the ebook which, for no logical reason, does not include a pass key. The extra material includes tutorials and animations that are referenced throughout the book. You can buy a pass key from the publisher for $60. So the ebook actually costs more than the print book.
I bought this book to assist me with my transition into the field of genomics research and molecular biology. I searched around for quite a while looking for a fairly deep and up-to-date books, and I think this book has more than fulfilled this purpose for me. I've been to Cold Springs Harbor Labs (this book is a CSHL Press publication). CSHL's history and place in this field of science is undisputed. Of the authors, I'm taking an online ed.s class from Professor Stephen Bell (MIT), and it is likewise excellent.What you should expect to find with this book is a text book format, with a quiz after each chapter, and the even questions have answers in the back. The book can easily be read front to back, but is also a very good reference book, with full index.I've found the book to be very accurate and up-to-date, at least to my level of knowledge. There are very few typographical errors. The figures are plentiful, presented in context, and provide a very good graphical representation of the text they accompany.I bought the loose leaf version so I could carry around just a few chapters as I read them. This book is nearly 900 pages.
Time and time again as I was reading a section I thought of a question, and then lo and behold in the next few paragraphs that question is raised and answered. In general I greatly enjoyed reading this book. I found it fascinating, though there are a few long and dry sections that were tedious.Some things, such as the operation of DNA Polymerase are much easier to comprehend if you can see visually how they work. The associated online movies that come with the book via a code and you tube came in handy for this.I loved the book. 6 stars
Every time I open this book to try and read it or try to use it for homework it finds a new way to disappoint me. The book itself is very informative, but because it is a kindle version it is slow and glitchy. Don't even bother trying to use the search feature or try to skip from page to page, because it will just freeze up and you will lose your place. Even swiping from page to page is terrible. If you try scrolling down it will take forever to load. The text itself is hard to read, and if you try and zoom in, it will distort the pages. The kindle app is terrible, I should have bought my book from chegg instead.
As a Molecular Genetics student, this book is a valuable resource. It is packed with information appropriate to any Molecular Biology, Genetics or related course you may encounter. Well written, comprehensive and reasonably priced. And, of course, James Watson (and colleagues) should know what they're talking about, seeing that he and Crick (thanks to Rosalyn Franklin!) made the double helix discovery!
Very helpful and useful textbook for graduate students.
Just the best book in genomics! Has a clear explanation of all basic processes inside the nucleus. It is not a cell biology book, but it has everything about genomics.
very good book
