"The Second Edition of Flow Cytometry provides a comprehensive and detailed foundation in the application of this diverse and rapidly expanding technology. The variety and scope of topics covered in this two-volume set are too large to cover in detail. The second edition of Flow Cytometry provides the investigator with a concise compilation of new and updated applications and procedures, updated references and a directory of the principal contributors to the field. The additions and improvements to the Second Edition are evidence of the impact this technology will continue to have on biological and medical sciences for years to come. "
--AMERICAN SCIENTIST
"This is a good reference manual for a multi-user facility faced with a wide variety of biological applications."
--CYTOMETRY
