Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Molecular Cell Biology stands out from its peers in this course in that it provides a clear introduction to the techniques and experiments of scientists past and present, not just an “encyclopedia” of information.  This experimental emphasis, together with a solid pedagogical framework in the chapters, provides the clearest, most cutting-edge text available.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Book on Cell Biology at the Molecular Level!, July 8, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Molecular Cell Biology (Hardcover)
An excellent textbook with a very clear writing style. Includes excellent diagrams and photographs to illustrate the text. The best of the lot. Personally, I would put this book well ahead of the similar book by Bruce Alberts et al., for its clarity and bredth of coverage.

3.0 out of 5 stars Overwhelming Details, July 24, 2000
By "rukmini" (Davis, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Molecular Cell Biology (Hardcover)
As a reference book, this book is handy to have. As a primary textbook for the classroom, this book is impossible. Each subsection of each chapter is overwhelmed with details of a process as it pertains to a variety of model systems. With the increasing amount of information on molecular biology available to us, it becomes vital that authors are able to extract key concepts, present them clearly, and then support them with detailed examples. The authors of this book instead have presented page after page of details, leaving the reader to wonder exactly what it was they were supposed to glean from the forgoing monolith. I found Albert's text to be far superior in readability and organization.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-have!, May 6, 2000
By Math PC (Boston, MA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Molecular Cell Biology (Hardcover)
This book is an essential tool for both students and professionals that need to broaden their knowledge in molecular cell biology. It provides the fundamental concepts and contains high quality illustrations/graphics. The CD-ROM is also a valuable tool that one can have as it contains basically the book itself.

Book is great if you are looking for extreme detail. Very wordy, not as many diagrams as hoped for. Much too detailed for the class being taken, but interesting nonetheless.
