内容简介

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.

  • 考试通过实在令人开心,学习的过程也十分愉悦。教材太棒,虽然基础,但是基本涉及到大学所学的大部分学科。循序渐进,插图导图都特别精美有趣。还用过梵高的画和各种有趣的比喻,编者大牛。可以邮件出版社请求视频材料,帮助深入理解。11-06
