I am using this text in a commercializing biomaterials course and highly recommend it to graduate students and post-docs who want to enter the world of start-up biotechnology. I think it would also be very helpful to junior faculty who are thinking about commercializing their research.  It is brilliantly constructed to walk you through the basics of taking your research from the bench to bedside and the challenges you are going to face along the way.  I also found the author's use of vignettes and specific examples very helpful to illustrate complex points.  This book won't write your business plan for you but should help you do your market analysis and give you the questions to ask when you initiate disclosures to your university's Technology Transfer office.  Highly recommended.
