review text: The process of cooperative binding of ligands to DNA has been classified into different modes. An additional mode of cooperative interaction amongst ligands binding at sites on complementary strands has been emphasised. A statistical mechanical method has been applied to obtain an analytical expression for the fraction of nucleotide sites bound. Theoretical Scatchard plots have been drawn and analysed.
