textbook cover
Molecular Biology of the Cell - Reference Ed.

Author: Bruce Alberts, et al.
Publisher: Garland, 2007, 1728pp, 5th ed.

Molecular Biology of the Cell is the classic in-depth textbook and reference in cell biology. 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.
