Synopsis

Bioinformatics: Databases and Algorithms offers two features that distinguish it from all others in this genre: it seeks to explain the basic algorithms in bioinformatics to readers who have little exposure to computer science and mathematics and it deals with structural bioinformatics in greater depth than most other books. The emphasis of this book is on algorithms, though the book also includes a whole chapter on databases.

The book represents the negotiation between an elementary introduction to the subject and an advanced monograph on the topic; thus serving as a comprehensive bridge between the two.
