Proteomics for Biological Discovery edited by Timothy D. Veenstra and John R. Yates III (342 pages, John-Wiley & Sons, publishers), defines the modern analytical challenges of proteomics in terms of quantification, detection and accuracy for biomedical research. The logic and possibly the elegance of this text comes from the way that the reader is able to converse with more than two dozen experts on a nearly complete collection of separation, automation and bioinformatics techniques required for quantitative and functional proteomic analysis. The book is divided into three parts: Part I is on the fundamentals of protein separations and mass spectrometry, Part II is on functional proteomic analysis and Part III discusses new methods that are at the frontier of the proteomics field.
