`Review from previous edition This book is an absolute must for all
lecturers and students alike of glycobiology ... Wholeheartedly
recommended.'
Microbiology Today, November 2006
`It covers the breadth of glycobiology very well and provides
sufficient depth to provide a platform for further research.'
Dr Gavin M. Brown, Lancaster University
`Others are not written as clearly or concisely as Taylor and
Drickamer.'
Prof Y.C. Lee, John Hopkins University
`I prefer this book highly above the other text books
available.'
Prof Dr J.P. Kamerling, Utrecht University
`Dr Taylor and Professor Drickamer should be congratulated on
writing a textbook that presents the enormous subject of
glycobiology with energy and enthusiasm and doing so in a manner
that should be accessible to their target audience.'
