from McGraw-Hill Medical
Price: $23.92

Customer Review:
I was amazed at the price for this paperback. It is interesting in content and a pleasant surprise is the inclusion of thermodynamics/kinetics of enzyme substrate interactions.

from Holt Paperbacks
Price: $2.80

Customer Review:
The idea here is a short, easy-to-read book that helps the general reader understand the molecular basis of life. The usual approach to this is a text by an expert in the field with close editing by someone whose level of knowledge is closer to that of the general public.

This is what was... more info

from Cambridge University Press
Price: $60.98

Customer Review:
John H. Ryskamp's "review" is gibberish from beginning to end, and tells us nothing of value about the book, but Mj Dos Reis Barros's review sums it up well.
Motoo Kimura was one of the major evolutionary theorists of the 20th century, and his neutral theory is an essential component for... more info

from Springer
Price: $62.00

Customer Review:
This book is poorly formatted for use on the iPhone Kindle reader. The font is hard to read, some letters and words appear to be missing, and leading digits in some of the numbers are inexplicably missing or appear elsewhere on the page. Kind of a fail for a textbook.

from Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press
Price: $254.07

Customer Review:
Perhaps you might think that a book that calls itself a lab manual is something typically spiral bound. With lots of pages of forms, for the user to fill in various places. Where the manual is the subordinate companion to some fully fledged textbook. And assuredly where the manual is somewhat cheap;... more info
