Cells
Friday, 27 April, 2007
Cells, the most cutting-edge textbook in the field, is the ideal resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students entering the world of cell biology, and is a useful tool for scientist who wish to learn more about topics outside their field. This new text provides full coverage of the structure, organisation, growth, regulation, movements, and interaction of cells, with an emphasis on eukaryotic cells. Under the direction of Dr Benjamin Lewin and three expert lead editors, each chapter was prepared by top scientists who specialise in the subject area. All chapters were carefully edited to maintain consistent use of terminology and to achieve a homogeneous level of detail and rigour. Where they are known, the molecular bases for human diseases are discussed in each chapter.
