Product Description
Product Description
"The epitome of what a current upper level textbook in cell biology should be". -- Quarterly Review of Biology
"Accessible and relatively easy to read....timely and accurate.... profusely and beautifully illustrated". -- American Society for Microbiology News
"A reliable, accurate and up-to-date textbook for which students and researchers must be grateful". -- Trends in Biochemical Sciences
"The standard against which other scientific textbooks will be measured". -- Biochemical Education
Now generously illustrated in full color and featuring many new panels, drawings, and diagrams, the Third Edition is completely reorganized to reflect new discoveries, new emphases, and new approaches. It covers major advances in signal transduction, intracellular protein sorting, gene regulation, control of cell division, and developmental biology. The biology of plants and the nervous system are integrated into the main text. The Third Edition also extensively updates coverage of immunology and cancer, and adds two new chapters that examine recombinant DNA techniques and proteins as machines.

5.0 out of 5 stars
the best book I have ever read,
By A Customer
This review is from: Molecular Biology of the Cell 3E (Hardcover)
I am a biochemistry student in mainland China. I have long wanted to have this book, but unfortunately the book is not available in China. Last month, my friend who is a Canadian citizen bought this book in North America and gave it to me as a present. I was greatly delighted. This is the best molecular and cell biology textbook I have ever read. And I have spent many pleasurable hours reading this wonderful book.

MBOC 3rd Ed. is wonderful!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Molecular Biology of the Cell 3E (Hardcover)
I am an undergraduate biology major. I don't usually wax
this enthusiastic over a textbook, but this one held my
interest like no other text. Call me strange, but I just
couldn't put it down! I found I couldn't take it to work to
read during down time, because I'd become oblivious to my
surroundings.
That said, this is not the book to start with if you just
want to learn a little about biology. It does presume a
certain base of knowledge.

Extremely well done textbook,
By A Customer
This review is from: Molecular Biology of the Cell 3E (Hardcover)
This book is the bible of cell biology. I continually find it to be well written, very thorough and extremely well illustrated. I am a PhD student in physiology and would consider this book to be one of the most indispensible books in my library. In fact, this is one of the few books I will pull off the shelf, open to some random page and just read.
