Media reviews

provides a major source of information on the mouse as an experimental model, and can be used as a detailed manual for researchers ... offers tried-and-tested protocols, with handy trouble-shooting tips and other supporting advice. It is aimed for both scientists new to the field and those who want an overview of the latest techniques. Index at the end of the book facilitates quick orientation and selective reading. Croatian Medical Journal (CMJ) We give a thumbs up to a book already well thumbed and in use in the lab. The Genetical Society of Great Britain
