Textbook of Pharmaceutical Biotechnology

The book is intended for both undergraduates and postgraduates, with a view to encourage them to synthesize what they have learned in traditional courses on their way to making creative contributions in science. The authors claim that scientists already working in related fields will gain an appreciation for the vast sweep of microbial biotechnology, and that the book will be a useful source of information for the nonscientist. The book should indeed perform admirably in these roles, although its use to nonscientists is likely to be limited by the prerequisite specialist knowledge required for an understanding of the processes and approaches described. In the authors' preamble they say that they regard the book to be unique, because they make no artificial attempt to confine their discussion to a single scientific discipline. The book examines the fundamental principles and facts that underline current practical applications of DNA, Fermentors and techniques of Biotechnology, describes these applications and examines future prospects for related technologies. As usual in books on biotechnology, judgments on appropriate categories of products for inclusion have been made. This reviewer considers the content to be appropriate but there are a few surprises.
