Overview
"A reference that should be in the personal library of any biologist who uses the Internet for the analysis of DNA and protein sequence data" --ScienceAs the Human Genome Project continues to generate raw sequence information, the most successful scientists will be those who can provide a biological interpretation of that data. This practical guide helps the molecular biologist design and implement a successful sequence analysis strategy, utilizing the overwhelming array of tools available, including Internet resources. A real advantage of this book over its competitors is its accessibility to the average biologist with no training in computational methods.

...a worthwhile addition to the library...Quarterly Review of Biology
This book is a rich source of information on an exciting new research field. The book's practical orientation and lack of mathematical detail should make it particularly appealing to professional geneticists.Science

Presents fourteen chapters on tools and databases used in bioinformatics, loosely defined as the intersection of molecular and computational biology. With the goal of helping the reader design and implement a successful sequence analysis strategy, topics covered include: using software and Internet resources, submitting DNA sequences to databases, information retrieval from databases, phylogenetic analysis, a database for genome information called ACeDB, and practical aspects of multiple sequence alignment.
