From the reviews of the second edition:"The second edition of RT-PCR protocols and attempts to cover the most commonly used RT-PCR protocols, giving both beginners and experts a deeper understanding of the experimental set-up. ... There are often flow diagrams or pictures to aid understanding and the references are helpful, if you require additional information. ... a good investment for any lab interested in ensuring that their RT-PCR reactions are as productive and well-controlled as possible. ... Overall a useful and detailed text written in an informative and helpful style." (Hayley Evans, Immunology News, May, 2011)
