Summary:Imaging: A Laboratory Manual Rafael Yuste, Editor 952 pages; ISBN 978-087969-36-9, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press,Woodbury, NewYork (2011), $165 paperback. Reviewed by Barry R.

E-mail: bmasters@mit.edu Imaging: A Laboratory Manual is a useful book for students and researchers interested in the rapidly advancing broad field of biological optical imaging. I recommend Imaging as a general and introductory textbook and laboratory manual for undergraduate and graduate laboratory courses in biological optical imaging. Imaging provides a balance of introductory technical materials with clear and precise experimental protocols, technical limitations, cautions, and detailed technical insights. It is modern in its coverage and includes chapters on modern microscopies, including super-resolution imaging, and linear and nonlinear optical microscopy.
