Metabolic Engineering in the Post Genomic Era (Horizon Bioscience)

The book brings together all the recent, most important breakthroughs in this exciting field. Internationally renowned key scientists have reviewed each topic in detail. In the Introduction, the editors give an overview of new approaches and spell out what the engineer and the industry may now really begin to aim for; they even adapt the definition of metabolic engineering to befit the post-genomics era.

This [book] has given a shot in the arm to the metabolic engineers who now have a much more comprehensive array of whole-cell models which can be used for developing their ideas. This book is an excellent collection of reviews by many of the key players. - Microbiology Today (May 2004)
