    "This book on Bioinformatics Algorithms has been designed to focus on descrete algorithms that address important problems in molecular biology, genomics, and genetics, that are based on sound models which are computationally efficient, that have been implemented and tested, in simulations and on real datasets, providing new biological results. Thus introductory text of the book offers a clear exposition of the algorithmic principles driving advances in bioinformatics. It introduces biological and algorithmic ideas together, linking issues in computer science to biology and thus capturing the interest of students in both the subjects. The publication cover all the important aspects of the subject." (jacket)
