THIS SIXTEEN VOLUME ENCYCLOPEDIA IS THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE AND DETAILED TREATMENT OF MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, CELL BIOLOGY AND MOLECULAR MEDICINE AVAILABLE TODAY! IT WAS DESIGNED IN COLLABORATION WITH A FOUNDING BOARD OF 10 NOBEL LAUREATES. THE ENCYCLOPEDIA PROVIDES A SINGLE–SOURCE LIBRARY OF THE MOLECULAR BASIS OF LIFE, WITH A FOCUS ON MOLECULAR MEDICINE. THE LATEST ADVANCES OF THE POST–GENOMIC ERA, E.G. IN THE FIELDS OF FUNCTIONAL GENOMICS, PROTEOMICS, AND BIOINFORMATICS ARE DISCUSSED IN DETAIL. ALL ARTICLES ARE DESIGNED AS SELF–CONTAINED TREATMENTS. EACH OF THE APPROXIMATELY 425 ARTICLES BEGINS WITH AN OUTLINE AND A KEY WORD SECTION WITH DEFINITIONS. ARTICLES ARE WRITTEN IN A REVIEW–LIKE STYLE COMPLEMENTED WITH AN EXTENSIVE BIPARTITE BIBLIOGRAPHY OF REVIEWS AND BOOKS AS WELL AS PRIMARY PAPERS. A GLOSSARY OF BASIC TERMS COMPLETES EACH VOLUME AND DEFINES THE MOST COMMONLY USED TERMS IN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY. TOGETHER WITH THE INTRODUCTORY ILLUSTRATIONS FOUND IN EACH VOLUME, THE ARTICLES ENABLE READERS TO UNDERSTAND ARTICLES WITHOUT REFERRING TO A DICTIONARY, TEXTBOOK, OR OTHER REFERENCE.

Reseña del editor:

This second edition of "The Encyclopedia of Molecular Cell Biology and Molecular Medicine" covers the molecular and cellular basis of life, disease, and therapy at university and professional researcher level. With its 16 volumes, this is the most comprehensive and detailed treatment of molecular cell biology and molecular medicine available today. It represents a single source library for: Molecular Biologists; Cell Biologist; Biochemists; Structural Biologists; Gene Technologists; Developmental Biologists; Medicinal Chemists; Physicians; Biotechnologists; and, Pharmacologists. An Editorial Board composed of renowned experts from all over the world - Nobel laureates, including the 2007 Nobel Prize winner in medicine, Sir Martin Evans, Lasker Award winners and directors of prestigious institutes and university department - guarantees the high quality and comprehensive scope of this work. All major disciplines comprising and supporting molecular cell biology and molecular medicine are covered in true Encyclopedic detail. Each of the over 400 articles is conceived as a self-contained treatment and begins with an outline and a keyword section, including definitions.
