From the reviews:
"For the 16 chapters of this volume, the editors have brought together contributors from all corners of the diverse field of transposon biology. . This volume is pitched to both transposon biologists and to nonspecialists. . the book provides a good introduction to this very broad research field and will be a key reference for specialists." (J. Arvid Ågren, The Quarterly Review of Biology, Vol. 88 (3), September, 2013)More details
