Reader Reviews
This review is from: Genetics: A Molecular Approach (Hardcover)
As a computer scientist wanting to learn bioinformatics, I picked up this book to learn the biology. The book is well written, presentation is lucid, and the pictures good. In addition, Brown presents the experiments first in a historical context and then the results, which I find easy to follow. I give the book four stars instead of five because it badly needs updating.
