### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Very Practical & Useful Users Guide
  

*by E***N on Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2006*

From a users-perspective this book serves its purpose well - it explains what it is that BLAST is doing "under-the-hood" so that one may better customize Blast's search behavior. All I know is that I really learned a lot of basic fundamental core concepts here that I previously just took for granted.The book discusses the  biology, statistics, algorithms, and computer science issues involved in explaining blast. I liked this approach because it does not head super far into any one core area but rather sticks to a strong fundamental overview of each topic. The other strong aspect of this book is that the author thoroughly compares NCBI and WU Blast throughout, characterizing instances where one may choose one over the other and/or how to tweak the parameters for both in those situations.I orginally bought the book b/c I wanted an overview on PAM and BLOSUM matrices and to understand how Blast Statistics work. It really served as an informative contextual tutorial that has definitely raised my overall understanding on not only Blast, but to better grasp the very interdisciplinary nature concerning sequence alignment for in-silico biological research.

    Useful but poorly written
  

*by D***K on Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2014*

The book is useful. Knowing BLAST is a must. This is good.The book is poorly written and organized. The language is vague. Explanations are too short and incomprehensible for a new user. In explaining new concepts authors often use some unknown professional terms and notions, which they never explain. I could guess some terms after reading several times, but too much you have to guess. Some letters in formulas are not explained. Authors should have thought more about their readers.Maybe this is a book for those who already know the subject, but it claims to be a comprehensive introduction. Also the authors claim that it is a book not for mathematicians. Having a background in statistics I have big problems understanding the material. Maybe that's exactly what they mean by "not for mathematician" - saying some words without adequate definitions?

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great practical part, bad theritical part
  

*by X***U on Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2011*

This book is a great protocol book for blast.But the theory part is not well organized. You may want to seek other book if you are interested in this part.
