About this book

During their lifetime, especially when growing and dividing, cells go through various steps of the cell cycle. Knowledge of the individual steps of the cell cycle will help us understand the development of a variety of diseases better, including cancer, and also to design new drugs against it. New techniques for studying the molecular basis of these processes have recently been developed and are described in detail in this manual.
A glossary helps the reader to cope with the complex cell cycle terminology.

Reviews

"Newcomers to cell-cycle research will enjoy and profit greatly from reading this new manual." Trends in Cell Biology
"...a valuable desk reference for scientists and students. While several other books describing protocols for investigation of growth control have recently been published, this is among the most viable." FEBS Letters
