Reviews

PRAISE FOR ESSENTIAL CELL BIOLOGY:

"This book fills a critical niche in the pedagogical process of introducing cell biology and does an excellent job in reaching its objective."

The Quarterly Review of Biology

"...an excellent example of designing a textbook for undergraduates….It is clear, well illustrated, conversational in tone and enjoyable to read and browse through..."

E-Streams

"The second edition retains all the beauty of the first, and it serves as an editorial model -- a guide that shows us how serious authors prepare a new version of a serious book....What makes for a great science education is not the amassing of facts but the understanding of concepts, processes and syntheses, and the realization that all our information about nature must be subject to testing and revision. That is the kind of educational experience that students can acquire from the second edition ofEssential Cell Biology."
