Review
"... I recommend this atlas to all students of biology and pathology but especially those people buying for a university / TAFE library where students or researchers will be using this text." Australian Journal of Medical Science 2/2006, vol. 27, No. 1
Product Description
This atlas of functional ultrastructure provides not only a detailed insight into the complex structure and organization of cells and tissues but also into specific functions fulfilled by the various cellular organelles and the dynamics of the different processes inside cells. The large collection of electron micrographs, together with those from immunoelectron microscopy, is complemented by thorough explanatory texts and schemes. Emphasis was placed on an integrated view of structure and function to show that subcellular organelles provide the structural foundation for fundamental processes of living organisms. Specialized cell types form the various tissues, and principles of tissue organization are presented. Under various conditions of disease, characteristic structural alterations may occur which is illustrated by examples. The book provides a source of information for scientists and students of Medicine and Biological Sciences, particularly of Histology, Cell and Molecular Biology and Biochemistry.
From the Back Cover
This atlas of functional ultrastructure provides a detailed insight into the complex structure and organization of cells and tissues, highlights specific cellular and tissue functions, and the dynamics of diverse intracellular processes. Highly informative electron micrographs are complemented by explanatory texts, selected references and schemes. The concept that subcellular organelles provide the structural foundation for fundamental processes of living organisms is emphasized. The first part covers the cellular organelles and changes due to experiments or occurring under pathological conditions. The second part illustrates by selected examples principles of functional tissue organization and typical changes resulting from experimental induction or pathological situations. The second, revised and extended edition of the atlas, which includes a CD, thus provides an invaluable source of information for scientists and students of Medicine and Biological Sciences, particularly of Histology, Cell and Molecular Biology. Moreover, it will serve as a handy reference guide for diagnostic and research electron microscopy laboratories in clinical, industrial, and academic settings.
