5.0 out of 5 stars Molecular Diagnostics: Fundamentals, Methods, & Clinical Applications, September 4, 2009

Frank J. Escontrias "Frank J. Escontrias" (Dallas, Texas) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Molecular Diagnostics: Fundamentals, Methods and Clinical Applications (Paperback)

An excellent tool in preparaton for Molecular Pathology Registry Exam.

Globally covers all areas of Molecular Pathology taught in formal university

classrooms courses. Information is simply explained, concepts are easy to

grasp and has illustrations, tables, charts, and diagrams that reaches and

facilitates a better level of understanding. Don't sit for registry exam without

reviewing this text. "Great Stuff".

Respectively,

Frank Escontrias

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent intro or review text, August 26, 2010

D. Sloane "Busy/OCD mother of one" (Tucson, AZ) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Molecular Diagnostics: Fundamentals, Methods and Clinical Applications (Paperback)

Perfect for reviewing to sit for registry exam. The initial chapters are great intro for adding molecular to any general scientific knowledge base. I would ask any one giving this book a less than stellar review to find a better one.

3.0 out of 5 stars Figures, September 6, 2010

Barb - See all my reviews

This review is from: Molecular Diagnostics: Fundamentals, Methods and Clinical Applications (Paperback)

For a first textbook written for CLS this is very decent but not perfect - looking forward to see the second edition with corrected figures, specifically regarding the position of PCR primers. Interestingly, the instructor's powerpoints have pictures that do not correspond to the same figures in the Text.

3.0 out of 5 stars 2nd edition releases in Dec 2012 so hold on
I have noticed that the 2nd edition will be released on early December 2011 so we can wait a bit and get the new version not the out dated 1st edition.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent text book
It was a very good book to have for my biomelecular tools for engineers class. Clear explanations. A few errors / typos

Published 12 months ago by DJH

1.0 out of 5 stars One of the worst-written books ever inflicted on me.
The fact that trees were killed for this is a crying shame. The cheesy two-color illustrations do not make up for the writing style, which manages at once to plod and confuse.

2.0 out of 5 stars Molecular Diagnostics
This is a new book, but many of the pages pull right out. There must be a binding problem.

The book came nicely packed with no bending at all.

It arrived 2 weeks before the estimated delivery.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not a beginners book!!!
This is not for those of us who are new to the topic. Too much information, not enough explanation. Read more

Pretty decent book, goes over most concepts of molecular diagnostics, PCR, FISH, RT-PCR, molecular beacons, FRET, etc. Fairly easy to understand. Read more
