Description
"Cells are the fundamental building blocks of life on this planet. Despite their tiny size, they are wonders of intricacy. Moment by moment, the cells of our bodies are engaged in a dazzling reper-toire of biochemical events, including signaling processes, transmission of genetic information, and delicately choreographed movements. Understanding the basic functions of cells also gives us in-sight when something goes wrong, like in the case of a disease, or when the cell is highjacked, like in the case of a viral infection. Helping our students to appreciate the complexities of this amazing cellular world lies at the heart of our goals as authors of Becker's The World of the Cell"--
