Cell Surface Receptors: A Short Course on Theory and Methods, Second Edition is a primer for the study of cell surface receptors. The simplified discussion of methods and their underlying principles removes the usual intimidation caused by the specialized vocabulary or sophisticated mathematics that characterize many of the primary papers in this field. In this way, the basic concepts become emphasized. This volume is a starting point: a textbook as well as a manual to which the investigator can return for a refresher course, when needed.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Highly readable and very informative,
By Bridget Lollo (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cell Surface Receptors:: A Short Course on Theory and Methods (Hardcover)
This book describes the mathematics of receptor ligand binding in a very readable fashion. I actually enjoyed reading it! It covers simple and complex binding interactions. It also contains detailed methods for performing the experiments. I highly recommend it. I am finally going to purchase this book, after wanting to for 10 years.
