Fundamentals of Fluorescence Imaging is one of those must-need textbooks for students in biomedical sciences, and I will definitely use it as such. In easy-to-read language understandable to the non-physicists or non-microscopists but in a complete way, it gives an overview of the most used fluorescence microscopy techniques. What is great about this book is also that it combines the technological part with very practical topics: sample preparation (chapter 5) and labeling of specific organelles (chapter 6-8). The book is fun to read and very instructive. I will implement it in my teaching program for sure. Prof. Dr. Marc A. M. J. van Zandvoort Maastricht University, the Netherlands This is an excellent book on the fundamentals of fluorescent imaging. There are very few books that provide the depth of coverage this one does. The book is clearly written without mathematics. Omer Iqbal, MD, FACC, FESC Loyola University Medical Center, USA
