I have just got hold of a copy. The title is rather misleading (I had
been expecting something like the books of Tamas Keleti or Segel) as
it is a kind of glorified dictionary or encyclopaedia. I'd put it as
useful in the library for undergraduate access, but not really
something that researchers would go to on a regular basis as the
detail isn't there.
This group might also be interested in Voit, E. O. (2000).
Computational analysis of biochemical systems. Cambridge University
Press, Cambridge. However, they will not find in it (among 525
references) any citations of papers describing programs such as
Gepasi, MetaModel and SCAMP....
All the best,
DBK.
