Infos

"This volume inspires. It certainly will be much appreciated by
cell biologists all over the world."

Quarterly Review of Biology, March 2009

This book is the eagerly awaited second edition of the
best-selling Mitochondria, a book widely acknowledged as the
first modern, truly comprehensive authored work on the important,
scientifically fundamental topic of the cellular organelles known
as mitochondria.

This new edition brings readers completely up to date on the
many significant findings that have occurred in the eight years
since the book was first published. As in that seminal first
edition, the second edition tackles the biochemistry, genetics, and
pathology of mitochondria in different organisms. The new edition
provides thorough updates of all literature concerning this vital
organelle, its functions, ongoing research surrounding it, and its
importance vis-à-vis a broad range of issues in cellular and
molecular biology. The book includes detailed descriptions of
current and developing technologies around mitochondrial research
and discovery, and highlights subjects that are growing, such as
the use of proteomics.

This book is an invaluable resource for all geneticists,
biologists, and educators in life sciences. It is also of interest
for advanced students in genetics and molecular biology.
