Product Description
This edition features: new chapters on recombinant DNA technology and genetic analysis, reflecting the major role of recombinant DNA and genetic techiques in modern cell biology; a new Chapter One that defines the book's organization and philosophy and its central dogma (that to understand cells you must understand proteins, and to understand proteins you must understand genes); a new chapter devoted solely to proteins; material on cell evolution now integrated throughout, instead of confined to a late chapter; discussions of new techniques, including electrophoretic mobility shift assays, DNA footprinting, gene replacement and transgenic animals, and role of sex lethal gene in sex determination of fruitflies; expanded coverage of developmental genetics, particularly regulation of genes in developmental processes (such as the biocoid gene); and a new part-opener, chapter-opener design.

 Great Textbook
This textbook is packed with details, but I disagree with those that feel that this is a bad thing. I felt that this book was an excellent supplement to what I learned in class. Besides, it's molecular biology. The details are important and can't just be cut out of the book...

good
This book is my textbook for nutrition metabolism. However, my instructor just pick parts of the book so it is fragmental for me. Anyway I think it is a good book.

The Best Book On Molecular And Cell Biology
This book is indeed the best introductory book on molecular and cell biology. It is well written and fully illustrated. This new edition also includes a lot of the most recent information particularly in the areas of signaling, cancer, and stem cells. It is a valuable resource for all students of molecular biology.

Better ( low_budget_low_fi )
This is the second copy of this book that I have (the first being the 5th ed.). It seems that the authors cannot settle on a cohesive system in which to arrange the material. Like the 5th ed., I think that the material does not follow a logical course of organization (but admittedly better than the last ed.). Nevertheless, the material presented is of good quality being that it is easy to understand and difficult to become lost in the material. Overall, it is a good book.
