"Cell and molecular biology is an every dynamic area of life sciences where the core activity of all biological developments are studied in depth. This comprehensive book provides a concise coverage of every topic in cell and molecular biology from the fundamental aspects to the latest developments in a simple and lively manner. The structure and functions of the cell organelles along with the molecular aspects of genes have been exemplarily dealt with and illustrated, which would prove to be very useful for students, researchers and teachers."
