Title: Proteomics too!!!
Product review: Zweiger broadly defines genomics as the "access and analysis of thousands of molecules at a time". The book is just as relevant to proteomics as it is to more restrictive definitions of genomics. In fact Transducing the Genome starts out with the scientists' attempts 20 years ago to simultaneously characterize all proteins. Attention turned to DNA in the late '80's, but the early protein work is very relevant to today's efforts to conqueor the "proteome", which are also covered, although to a lesser extent. The book is an excellent read. It is reletively easy to follow and contains some very interesting and informative musings on science fiction, politics, law, business, and other matters. Enjoy!
