From the reviews of the second edition: "This book introduces several approaches essential for plant hormone biology at the forefront of research. ... This book has been published at an apt time for plant hormone biologists, especially for PhD students and advanced researchers in this field, to move the field to a higher stage and to lead them towards wider and more advanced technical approaches to hormone analyses, to encourage them to accumulate more specific genomic information and to apply more sophisticated analytical tools."
