"I have owned almost every edition of this excellent book. I would pass the older versions to my students. Molecular Biology of the Gene explains the molecular and genetic processes in terms the educated layman can follow. Each edition adds new, recently discovered material. The diagrams are always extremely useful. I picked up this edition to maintain my currency, since I no longer work in the field."
"This is the best textbook that I've read. Watson presents the information in a simple to understand way. The information is explained in good detail, and sources are given for the astute student to delve into more depth. This is hands down the best text book of my college days."
"Geet: Erik will bring this in for you. It's like Molecular Biology of the Cell (MBotC), but focused on genes. Pro: This book is more concise, and therefore easier to read than MBotC (which tends to ramble). But, it has a narrower topic."
"This is the best textbook I have ever read. I actually WANT to read it cover to cover. Its easy to read, the explanations are concise and easily understandable. Its really an enjoyable read if you're interested in molecular bio."
