Recenzii

“This book fills the urgent need of a concise but comprehensive source for critically important terminology in the field of biomedical engineering. I expect it to become an indispensable table reference for all biotechnology and bioengineering researchers, educators, and students.”
—Anthony J McGoron, PhD, Professor at Florida International University, Department of Biomedical Engineering, Miami, Florida
“This reference book is a ‘must have’ for all users in bioengineering and biotechnology. Simple to complex definitions and meanings are included in this book. The definitions of the terms are clear, concise, and understandable. Sometimes I felt I knew the definition of a certain word, but reading the term gave a clearer and more definite understanding to me. The author, Dr. Goyal, has done a phenomenal job making the definitions understandable.”
—Professor Raj Bansal, Piscataway School, New Jersey; Private Consultant in English Language
“This reference book is definitely appealing to the health sciences and engineering communities. It alleviates the drudgery to know the meaning of technical terms in bioengineering and biotechnology. I recommend it for every library and for educational institutes and government/private agencies who work in this area.”
—Jesus M Roman-Velez, MD, Practicing Physician, Specialist in Internal Medicine and Pulmonary Mechanics, Mayaguez, Puerto Rico
“The authors have diligently described the technical terms in bioengineering and biotechnology and have included a chapter on the timeline for these focus areas. They have also included selected illustrations to describe specific terms. The authors have done an extraordinary job of compiling the technical terms.”
—Taranjit Singh, MD, DHMS., Private Practicing Family Physician, Near Telephone Exchange
Dhuri, Punjab, India
“Informative, user-friendly, and easy to read. The book introduces technical terms in bioengineering and biotechnology in nontechnical language.”
