"Bioinformatics," a term that emerged in the early 1990s, refers to the discipline that "uses the instruments of informatics to analyze biological data in order to formulate hypotheses about life." But in introducing a field made possible by high-speed computers and the Web, Tramontano (biochemistry, U. of Rome La Sapienza, Italy) notes that an operational definition is in order. Therefore, she describes the rationale; biological, statistical, and programming knowledge required; and limitations and future evolution of the tools and methods used for such applications as genomic (gene sequencing), modeling, and other "omics" projects. The book includes chapter problems and a list of commonly used Web sites. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
