About this ebook

This course manual instructs students in recombinant DNA techniques and other essential molecular biology techniques in the context of projects. The project approach inspires and captivates students; it involves them in the scientific experience, providing continuity to laboratory bench time and an understanding of the principles underlying the techniques presented.

Molecular Biology is a must for any department, operating under budgetary constraints that offers or plans to offer a course in molecular cloning.
