From the reviews: "The field of data mining in proteomics is currently extremely dynamic while encompassing a wide range of specialties, topics and implications, and so is this book. ... This is a very interesting compendium of theoretical, almost philosophical contributions next to requirements and tools with suggestions for their integration. Overall the book is a valuable aid for beginners and for experts as well; moreover, it provides some stimulating materials for discussion in an open perspective."
