| Title of Book: |
Human Molecular Genetics |
|
| Description of Book: |
The most comprehensive and as much up-to-date as possible book on human genetics from T. Strachan and A. Read. Contains all of the essential information on genetics, but also discusses new technologies used in genetic research. It has lots of practical examples of how genetics is studied. This book is a must for any aspiring human genticist. It is very clearly and well written making reading a pleasure. The 2nd edition is available online at NCBI website. |

| Title of Book: |
Practical Flow Cytometry |
|
| Description of Book: |
This is an amazing book on flow cytometry by H. Shapiro, that can hardly be treated as a textbook. It reads like a novel and contains all the historical information on flow cytometry, lots of practical tips, some protocols. It is a great help to any newcomer in the field but also a great reference to any user of a flow cytometer. |
