Description
Book SynopsisOften imitated but never rivalled,
DNA Replication, Second Edition, regarded around the world as a classic of modern science, is now back in print in a paperback edition. Kornberg and Baker's insightful coverage of DNA replication and related cellular processes have made this 1992 edition
the standard reference in the field.
Trade Review'It is an excellent reference book on DNA and nucleic-acid enzymes, and every molecular biology laboratory should have a copy for easy access to the principles underlying today's DNA technology...The book is an excellent resource for graduate teaching and should also be a useful source of background material for undergraduate courses in biochemistry.' - Nature
