Essential Cell Biology, 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. It has 20 chapters x 10 In addition, we have included books in Spanish and Portuguese, so that you have the opportunity to read books on Cell Biology in these languages. A cell's ability to function depends on its set of various proteins. How is a cell’s genetic information used to make proteins, the master operators of the cell?

In addition, they provide a greatly expanded Question Bank, several new student assessment tools, as well as more than 130 narrated videos to guide reader as they progress through the chapters.Alexander Johnson received his PhD from Harvard University and is a professor of microbiology and immunology at the University of California, San Francisco.

Bruce Alberts received his PhD from Harvard University and is Professor of Biochemistry and Biophysics at the University of California, San Francisco. He is the editor-in-chief of Science magazine. For 12 years he served as President of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences (1993-2005). Here ends our selection of free Cell Biology books in PDF format. We hope you liked it and already have your next book! 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.

The transmission electron microscope (TEM) is in principle similar to a light microscope, but it uses a beam of electrons instead of a beam of light, and magnetic coils to focus the beam instead of glass lenses. The TEM has a useful magnification of up to a million-fold and with biological specimens can resolve details as small as about 2 nm.

This text features lively, clear writing and exceptional illustrations, making it the ideal textbook for a first course in both cell and molecular biology. Thoroughly revised and updated, the Fifth Edition maintains its focus on the latest cell biology research. For the first time ever, Essential Cell Biology will come with access to Smartwork5, Norton’s innovative online homework platform, creating a more complete learning experience.

Jill U. Adams is a scientist-turned-science-writer who writes about health, medicine, and scientific research for scientists and lay audiences alike. She got hooked on cell biology well after graduate school, through reading Lewis Thomas and writing about cellular processes such as autophagy, the cell's ultimate form of recycling. David Morgan received his PhD from the University of California, San Francisco, and is a professor in the Department of Physiology as well as the vice dean for research for the School of Medicine. Dave is a fellow of the Royal Society of London. Clare O’Connor is an Associate Professor in the Biology Department at Boston College. She teaches courses in cell biology and genetics. She has recently developed new lab classes that engage students in functional genomics research. Clare spends a lot of time thinking about how to use electronic learning resources to get students excited about science.
