Abstract

Our interest in the mechanics of swelling is recent and has arisen quite unexpectedly from the study of the control of glycogen metabolism in liver. Serendipity brought us to this promising field which we have explored and are still discovering with the zeal of a novice. This chapter summarizes our path from glycogen metabolism to cell swelling
