From the reviews:"The intent is to provide diverse group of techniques to everyone interested in implementing bioluminescence-based imaging regardless of their level of experience with such methodologies. These are very worthy objectives and the book successfully meets them. ... The book is illustrated with high-quality pictures and figures. This is an excellent source of protocols and methodologies that use bioluminescence imaging as a tool for visualizing and tracking various biological processes in diverse fields."
