From the reviews:

"This book is intended to introduce endocrinologists to the field of genomic analysis including both wet-bench and downstream analysis/interpretation. The work is nicely broken into application areas by field of endocrinology and therefore presents the material in a way that should be interesting to readers and applicable to their particular questions. a ] The material is presented across several levels and therefore different portions should be of use to trainees, starting at the graduate level, through experienced principal investigators. a ] a good addition to the canon."
