From the reviews:



"This book compiles various array techniques as applied to profiling of disease states. Included are DNA, protein, and carbohydrate-based methods. ... is directed at working scientists interested in the application of array procedures for diagnostic uses. Research fellows and laboratory heads might find material of interest. The editor has selected a broad range of collaborating authors with extensive background in this area. ... Each chapter is accompanied by a useful bibliography." (Eugene A Davidson, Doody's Review Service, October, 2007)
