"The topics are organized in a sensible linear manner, starting with elementary protein-DNA binding assays such as filter binding and EMSA, leading to footprinting techniques for the identification of individual contacts and DNA distortion, through more complex crosslinking and spectroscopic methods, to the final chapters on crystallization and some highly specialized biophysical techniques such as force microscopy....this book will find favor with both the novice and the expert; the former will learn techniques that will be useful for many years whilst the latter will be inspired by discovering new applications." - Molecular Biotechnology
