- Summary:
- Though the textbook has been thoroughly revised, and new sections added on cancer and the immune system, the goal remains to introduce first-year undergraduates to the whole field of cell biology in a manner that does not overload their brains, pocketbooks, or backpacks. The theme is the cell as a unit of life, and the topics include water and macromolecules, DNA structure and the genetic code, transcription and the control of gene expression, protein structure, energy trading within the cell, and intercellular communication. No dates are cited for earlier editions. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
