Principles of Cell Growth and Division

The purpose of Principles of Cell Growth and Division is to hasten the convergence of principles of the cell cycle and to present a specific field of science that can lead to a more general understanding of the nature of scientific inquiry.

This new text is a unified, simpler, and a more pedagogically satisfying presentation of updated material. In large measure, this book is "reconstructionist" in that it attempts to put the biochemical elements together within the context of the growing cell. In this sense, it is primarily about the biology of the cell and cell growth. Principles of Cell Growth and Division attempts to place the field of cell-cycle studies on a sound biological basis and to allow future workers and students to place their studies clearly within this framework for cell-cycle analysis.
