Description

This one-of-a-kind manual offers twenty-three foolproof labs designed to make molecular biology accessible and interesting to beginning biology students. Covering the basic techniques of gene manipulation and analysis, these "tried and true" experiments were tested and re-tested by the experienced author team to ensure absolute accuracy and ease of use.
