Title: A genetic switch: Phage lambda revisited. 3rd ed
Abstract: This 154-page book, printed in English, is a third edition text that focuses on new discoveries in gene regulation in the bacterial virus lambda. This edition contains the text from the first edition, with some changes. A new chapter discusses the recent advances in lambda's genetic switch. There are five chapters in this edition, each of which is divided into topical sections. Topics include master elements of control, protein-DNA interactions and gene control, control circuits, key experiments, and new developments. The book includes diagrams, tables, an introduction, prefaces to the first and third editions, and an index. This book should be useful to biologists, geneticists and others interested in this evolving topic.
