I always have to ask myself "now, why would they do that" when a publisher cripples the "Surprise me" feature. In this case, the TOC makes it clear: this book is a little about MySQL, a little about Perl, a little about R, and a little about web programming. The authors have some decent case studies, but why should I gamble $50 on that?

This is a great book, I am very satisfied with it.
In fact, this book combines the most popular tools in bioinformatics:Perl, R and MySQL.
Some of us may be expert for one or two of these tools. But how to systemically to use them together, this book gives answers.
It aslo gives direction of how to go further if you want to master one of these tools.
Plus,it has a lot of practical examples which you can easily transform for your own work.
And I must say the authors are very responsibe. They answered my questions promptly and in details. I really apprecitate this.
Thank you.
