Query: a great reference for transcription lab work!

I purchased this book for my lab and I cannot praise it highly enough. The only problem is that grad students and postdocs keep stealing it from my office and I'm always having to go out and hunt it down on someone's bench! When introducing a new technique to your lab, it is a good idea to read the chapater on that technique before you pick up your pipet. The descriptions of methodology and the degree of detail are first rate. I hope that Carey and Smale bring out a new edition soon that covers the new innovations in the transcription field from the five years since their current edition was published.Lori BernsteinAssistant ProfessorTexas A & M University
