Publisher’s information	Comments
Bioinformatics Basics: Applications in Biological Science and Medicine by Hooman H. Rashidi and Lukas K. Buehler December 1999 ISBN 0-8493-2375-4 CRC Press $69.95	Save yourself the $70 and several hours of frustration. This badly written book reads like a rough draft. What usable information the authors present is readily available at the NCBI’s web site. I provide a full review here.
