Essential Cell Biology, 4th Edition by Alberts, Bruce|Bray, Dennis|Hopkin, Ka

Description: About this productProduct InformationThis text provides a readily accessible introduction to the central concepts of cell biology. And its lively, clear writing and exceptional illustrations make it the ideal text for a first course in both cell and molecular biology. Molecular detail has been kept to a minimum. This decision delivers a cohesive conceptual framework for the basic science that underlies our current understanding of all of biology--including the biomedical sciences.Product IdentifiersPublisherNorton & Company, Incorporated, w. w.ISBN-100815344546ISBN-139780815344544eBay Product ID (ePID)121497387Product Key FeaturesAuthorAlexander Johnson, Julian Lewis, Bruce ALBERT'S, Dennis Bray, Karen HopkinPublication NameEssential Cell BiologyFormatHardcoverLanguageEnglishPublication Year2013, 2011-NowTypeTextbookNumber of Pages864 PagesDimensionsItem Length11.1in.Item Height1.3in.Item Width8.7in.Weight69.7 OzItem Weight68.9 OzAdditional Product FeaturesLc Classification NumberQh581.2.E78 2013Publication Date2013-10-15Edition Description4th Revised Edition, Revised Edition,New Edition, 4th EditionEdition Number4ReviewsPRAISE FOR THE PREVIOUS EDITION "Enthralls the reader....Core concepts are explained from first principles in a manner that is lucid and unambiguous....That the authors have assembled a seminal cell biology textbook cannot be disputed....really ought to be an intrinsic part of every bioscience undergraduate's essential reading." - The Biochemist "...the language and terminology used by the authors remain focused at a level appropriate to and accessible by undergraduate students....New users of the textbook will find it accessible and approachable....The instructor resources remain a valuable addition....I highly recommend it to all." - CBE-Life Sciences Education "This attractive, accessible, visually oriented text covers the fundamentals of cell biology required to understand biomedical and broader issues that affect students' lives." - SciTech Book News, PRAISE FOR THE PREVIOUS EDITION eoeEnthralls the readere.Core concepts are explained from first principles in a manner that is lucid and unambiguous....That the authors have assembled a seminal cell biology textbook cannot be disputede.really ought to be an intrinsic part of every bioscience undergraduatee(tm)s essential reading.e - The Biochemist "ethe language and terminology used by the authors remain focused at a level appropriate to and accessible by undergraduate studentse.New users of the textbook will find it accessible and approachablee.The instructor resources remain a valuable additione.I highly recommend it to all.e - CBE-Life Sciences Education "This attractive, accessible, visually oriented text covers the fundamentals of cell biology required to understand biomedical and broader issues that affect students' lives." - SciTech Book News, PRAISE FOR THE PREVIOUS EDITION "Enthralls the reader....Core concepts are explained from first principles in a manner that is lucid and unambiguous....That the authors have assembled a seminal cell biology textbook cannot be disputed....really ought to be an intrinsic part of every bioscience undergraduate's essential reading." - The Biochemist "...the language and terminology used by the authors remain focused at a level appropriate to and accessible by undergraduate students....New users of the textbook will find it accessible and approachable....The instructor resources remain a valuable addition....I highly recommend it to all." - CBE-Life Sciences Education "This attractive, accessible, visually oriented text covers the fundamentals of cell biology required to understand biomedical and broader issues that affect students' lives." - SciTech Book News "Essential Cell Biology, fourth edition, provides an up-to-date introduction to the fundamental concepts of cell biology as well as rapidly growing fields such as stem cell biology, development, and cancer....This book is ideal for students taking an introductory cell or molecular biology course, yet is also suitable for individuals looking to simply refresh their understanding of some of the basics of cell biology....Students will gain a broad understanding of biological processes from the latest edition of Essential Cell Biology, which will also help them as they advance to more specialized topics of biology and biomedical research." -Yale Journal of Biology and MedicineTable of ContentTABLE OF CONTENTS 1.
