Read as many books as you like Personal use and Join Over We cannot guarantee that every book is in the library. Essential Cell Biology provides a readily accessible introduction to the central concepts of cell biology, and its lively, clear writing and exceptional illustrations make it the ideal textbook for a first course in both cell and molecular biology.
The text and figures are easy-to-follow, accurate, clear, and engaging for the introductory student. Molecular detail has been kept to a minimum in order to provide the reader with a cohesive conceptual framework for the basic science that underlies our current understanding of all of biology, including the biomedical sciences.
The Fourth Edition has been thoroughly revised, and covers the latest developments in this fast-moving field, yet retains the academic level and length of the previous edition.

This updated edition of this essential textbook provides coverage of rapidly unfolding advances in the understanding of hormones involved in regulating most aspects of bodily functions.
It is richly illustrated in full color with both descriptive schematic diagrams and laboratory findings obtained in clinical studies.
This is a classic reference for moving forward into advanced study. Includes five new chapters: Mitochondria and Disease, The Cell Biology of the Immune System, Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine, Omics, Informatics, and Personalized Medicine, and The Microbiome and Disease Contains over new illustrations, along with revised and updated illustrations Maintains the same vision as the prior editions, teaching cell biology in a medically relevant manner in a concise, focused textbook.
By extracting the fundamental concepts from this enormous and ever-growing field, the authors tell the story of cell biology, and create a coherent framework through which non-expert readers may approach the subject.
Written in clear and concise language, and beautifully illustrated, the book is enjoyable to read, and it provides a clear sense of the excitement of modern biology.
The hallmark features of previous editions continue in the Fourth Edition. The book is designed with a clean and open, single-column layout. The art program maintains a completely consistent format and style, and includes over 1, photographs, electron micrographs, and original drawings by the authors. Clear and concise concept headings introduce each section. Every chapter contains extensive references. Most important, every chapter has been subjected to a rigorous, collaborative revision process where, in addition to incorporating comments from expert reviewers, each co-author reads and reviews the other authors' prose.
The result is a truly integrated work with a single authorial voice. As the amount of information in biology expands dramatically, it becomes increasingly important for textbooks to distill the vast amount of scientific knowledge into concise principles and enduring concepts.
As with previous editions, Molecular Biology of the Cell, Sixth Edition accomplishes this goal with clear writing and beautiful illustrations. This post features a detailed review of this book. Molecular Biology of the Cell. Essential cell biology is a joint effort of 8 authors. All are well reputed professors in the fields of science.
The text comprises of 20 chapters belonging to cell. Readers obtain detailed discussion about cell structure and function. At the same time, division, signaling and chemical components of cell also make part of the discussion. Similarly, we get access to detailed information about Energy, Cytoskeleton, Biotechnology and genetics in Essential cell biology. The Authors cover all the topics related to cell in Essential cell biology 4th edition.
