Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Too many authors undermine coherence
Review: This text is excellent in the coverage of its subject matter, but, like typical texts and journal articles written by a myriad of authors, it lacks coherence. Thus, separating the wheat from the chaff is tedious. The book, if well written, could be much shorter and more readable than it currently is.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Comprehensive but easy to follow
Review: This thousand page-plus work provides a comprehensive, but easy to follow review of molecular cell biology. Illustrations are excellent. The book starts with the basics of molecular biology - proteins, nucleic acids, genetic code, etc. It then considers nuclear functions in detail -replication, transcription and gene regulation in development. The book then considers cytoplasmic functions in detail - cell membranes, cell energy production and utilization, microfilaments, microtubules, multicellularity and control of the eukaryotic cell cycle.
