RNA and the Regulation of Gene Expression
"This book is a well-selected compilation of 14 mostly review-style articles, written by experts in the field ... a well-written, successful endeavour to present the field of eukaryal RNA-mediated regulation of gene expression. It has its major strength in providing an extremely well structured, up-to-date, comprehensive overview that skillfully zooms the reader into each topic from a general introduction to a high degree of detail ... suited for a broad range of readers, from advanced students to researchers in the field. Personally, we very much enjoyed reading it."
from D. K. Willkomm and R. K. Hartmann, Universitat Marburg, Germany in ChemBioChem (2008) 9: 2005-2007

Writing in the journal Microbiology Today (Society for General Microbiology, UK), John McCarthy of the University of Manchester, UK, reviews a new book on RNA and the Regulation of Gene Expression published by Caister Academic Press:

"the contributions in this book do provide informative and well-structured overviews of current understanding of the roles of non-coding RNAs, short interfering RNAs, microRNAs and retrotransposons in eukaryotic organisms ... cutting edge studies on the potential role of RNA species in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression and on the existence of previously unidentified classes of intergenic and intronic short regulatory RNAs (pyknons) ... a useful purchase for specialist workers in the field as well as for many institutional libraries."
