Synopses & Reviews
This critically acclaimed text takes a modern and completely unique approach to the study of cell biology. Its overriding theme is that cellular structure, function, and dysfunction ultimately result from specific macromolecular interactions. The text takes readers from an explanation of the hardware of molecules and cells to an understanding of how these structures function in the organism in both healthy and diseased states. An exquisite art program allows readers to better visualize the molecular structures.
