I am pleased to provide the following excerpt from a book review of
Metagenomics: Theory, Methods and Applications:
"an extremely well-written, easy to read, and highly informative book that discusses the importance of metagenomics and what it brings not only to molecular biology, but also to fields such as microbiology, ecology, evolution, and medicine ... This volume is recommended for scientists in any field who are interested in learning more about metagenomics, how to make sense of what this term really means, and how they can benefit from this newly formed and extremely promising field ... this is a book that takes a seemingly complex and convoluted subject, organizes it, and turns it into a volume that is an enjoyable and educational read." from Sarah M. Gray (Ecology and Evolution, Stony Brook University, New York)
