A new book, of interest to yeast biologists

[Francis Ouellette]

Dear Yeast bionetters,

here is something that may be of interest to you, a new book from Cold
Spring Harbor Lab Press.

For the record, I have no association with this book, publisher or 
distributor.  I do know some of the authors, but this post is of my own
instigation. I have not read this book yet, but I am sure it will
be quite interesting!

regards to all,

francis,
