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. ... 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 good addition to the canon." (Gene C Webb, Doody's Review Service, March, 2008)

"This book is aimed to bridge between the advanced knowledge acquired by new technologies in genetics and endocrinology, such as the use of microarrays. ... For geneticists and endocrinologists." (Pediatric Endocrinology Reviews, Vol. 5 (4), June, 2008)

"Contemporary Endocrinology series provides the necessary insight into DNA microarray technology and some of its applications in endocrinology, serving as a critical guide to scientists using the technology, as well as a primary source of information for the clinical endocrinologists, about the results obtained to date. ... This volume is an indispensable guide to the new and exciting world of genome-wide transcription analysis and its applications in endocrinology." (Serban Radian, Acta Endocrinologica, Vol. 1, 2009)
