"This book provides a very comprehensive review on numerous comtemporary genomics technologies and tools by a team of experts in the field. Very informative for getting a quick comparison of different technologies!" from Functional Genomics.

"The chapters in this book reflect the range of technical advances that have, and are presently, transforming the way we perform genomic analyses in the lab ... Topics covered in this book are generally well covered and clearly explained, plus each chapter contains a helpful further reading section. This book ... would be of general interest to anyone working within the genomic technology field." from Microbiology Today (2003) 30: 48.

"On balance, I liked this book. ... if you're looking for twelve diverse and generally well-written reviews bound into one volume, this will do nicely." from Human Genetics (2003) 113: 193.

"... this volume provides useful information about both current and emerging genomic technologies ... this is a good quality production; the presentation of the text is easy to the eye, broken up by a sufficient number of illustrations. A useful introduction to genomic technologies for anyone from graduate students to researchers." from The Biochemist (2003).

"The Functional Genomics Series describes the state-of-the-art of technical means to efficiently analyse sequence information - provided by the nascent disciplines of bioinformatics and computational biology - and the need to fit the genomic pieces into the puzzle of biological function, resulting in an understanding of the functioning of complex systems of genes and macromolecules." from International Microbiology (2003) 6: 75-78.

" ... describes in detail the new technologies available for studying the whole-genomes of organisms ranging from microbes to humans." from International Microbiology (2003) 6: 75-78.
