In the post-genomic age, much biomedical research looks at when, where, and at what level genes are expressed. Measuring Gene Expression is an all-in-one introduction to the main methods of measuring gene expression, including RT-PCR, differential display, RNA interference, reporter genes, microarrays, and proteomics, as well as a section on RNA isolation and analysis. There is an overview of each method: its pros and cons, sample preparation, sources of error, and data interpretation.
Measuring Gene Expression (THE BASICS (Garland Science))

Great Introductory Review,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Measuring Gene Expression (THE BASICS (Garland Science)) (Paperback)
This book is exactly what I was looking for interms of understanding the basics of gene expression. It is written easy enough to understand but not too simplistic. Covers all of the major concepts and techniques in great detail.
