Reviews
"Throughout the book, emphasis is placed not just on what 'we know' but also on 'how we know' and 'what remains to be discovered'- important for engaging and enthusing students....A quarter of a century after the first edition revolutionised cell biology textbooks, the new edition is as fresh, comprehensive and above all, as readable as ever....Like its predecessors, this is a superb textbook for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students." -British Society for Developmental Biology Newsletter, Summer 2008, Vol. 29, No. 1 "Professors, lecturers, and instructors will find the fifth edition of the book Molecular Biology of the Celland its accompanying Problems Bookto be an excellent choice for guiding their students through the maze of the cell's molecular structures and biochemical processes....With countless colorful illustrations and a large number of photographs and tables, reading the text becomes not only an educational experience, but also a highly enjoyable one for those students who wish to discover the inner workings of the magnificent cellular machine....Educators will also find the DVD-ROM to be a rich electronic resource when compiling their lectures....No less important is the Problems Book,which contains numerous exercises and questions that are an integral part of the learning process, and that teachers, instructors, and students are sure to appreciate." The Quarterly Review of Biology, September 2008, Volume 83, Number 3 "It has been 25 years since the first edition of Molecular Biologyof the Cell (MBoC) was published, which means that roughly halfof today's practicing scientists do not remember life withoutthis cell biology 'bible'. The other half might recall how thebook almost instantly filled a void with refreshingly clearand engaging writing illustrated with extensive diagrams andfigures .MBoChas only improved over its several editions, growing with the rapidadvances in the field to become an essential resource for studentsat all levels and a trusted first stop for researchers transitioninginto unfamiliar areas of cell biology .An enduring strengthof the book is that it remains a comprehensive textbook .In addition to the comprehensive updating of every chapter,another reason to consider acquiring edition five is the improvedintegration of the print volume with an extensive array of videosand animations in the 'Cell Biology Interactive' provided onthe accompanying DVD .Another welcome improvement in MBoC5 helpslink the textbook to the lab - there are now problems printedat the ends of the first 20 chapters. Whereas some are designedto facilitate information retention, the best problems stimulatethought and challenge the reader to think about experimentalapproaches for learning new things about cell biology .the MBoC5 package is a fantastic resource and well worth theupgrade." -Development (Company of Biologists) 135, 3973-3974 (2008), "Throughout the book, emphasis is placed not just on what 'we know' but also on 'how we know' and 'what remains to be discovered'- important for engaging and enthusing students....A quarter of a century after the first edition revolutionised cell biology textbooks, the new edition is as fresh, comprehensive and above all, as readable as ever....Like its predecessors, this is a superb textbook for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students." -British Society for Developmental Biology Newsletter, Summer 2008, Vol. 29, No. 1 "Professors, lecturers, and instructors will find the fifth edition of the book Molecular Biology of the Cell and its accompanying Problems Book to be an excellent choice for guiding their students through the maze of the cell's molecular structures and biochemical processes....With countless colorful illustrations and a large number of photographs and tables, reading the text becomes not only an educational experience, but also a highly enjoyable one for those students who wish to discover the inner workings of the magnificent cellular machine....Educators will also find the DVD-ROM to be a rich electronic resource when compiling their lectures....No less important is the Problems Book, which contains numerous exercises and questions that are an integral part of the learning process, and that teachers, instructors, and students are sure to appreciate."

Once again, the authors are to be congratulated on a superb achievement.
