From the reviews:"This book compiles various array techniques as applied to profiling of disease states. Included are DNA, protein, and carbohydrate-based methods. … is directed at working scientists interested in the application of array procedures for diagnostic uses. Research fellows and laboratory heads might find material of interest. The editor has selected a broad range of collaborating authors with extensive background in this area. … Each chapter is accompanied by a useful bibliography."
