Basic Concepts In Cell Biology: A Student's Survival Guide
Download Free (EPUB, PDF)

Giving students a needed ally in learning the difficult concepts in cell biology and histology is the single goal of this concise text. In typical "Basic Concepts" fashion, the subject is treated with maximum emphasis on demystifying basic science topics using analogy, charts and algorithms, clinical examples, mnemonics and other proven teaching methods. Organized from simple to more complicated concepts, students will enjoy the uniquely lucid review of cell biology including cell membranes, intracellular trafficking, signal conduction, mitosis and meiosis, cell motility, and more. Histology is also reviews, starting with epithelium and junctional complexes, connective tissue, muscle, and a system-by-system review of cell structure.

Need to learn about the clathrin triskelion? It's in here. This book goes well above and beyond what I learned in Cell Bio and is amazingly concise in its consolidation. Will definitely be a welcome necessity for med and phys studies.

This book is a quick read with all the main details. It's well organized and helpful. It's also relatively cheap!

This book is the most brilliant book I read since the last 10 years. It is valuable, useful, and helpful in the field of histology. I recommend it for medical students and science students.

It's ok

Great
