This clear, complete and well illistrated book was designed for labs in developing countries that wish to use PCR technology. It also happens to be the perfect manual for those interested in hacking DNA in their kitchens and basements.

If you're interested in actually working with DNA technology and your resources are limited, this is THE book.

This is a great book that covers some of the basics and background associated with PCR. As an undergrad this book has been very helpful, and has given me some great ideas. Eva Harris shows that it is easier than one might think to do PCR in third world countries. And it gives hope to students living in developed countries of building their own simplified thermocycler. I plan on using this book as a guide.
