CELLS by Benjamin Lewin

This important new textbook, designed for advanced undergraduate and early graduate courses in cell biology, covers the structures, organization, growth, regulation, movements, and interactions of cells, with emphasis on eukaryotic cells. Under the direction of Dr. Benjamin Lewin and three expert section editors, each chapter was prepared by top scientists who specialize in the given subject area, and all chapters have been carefully edited to maintain a consistent level throughout the text and to assure that all necessary topics are covered.

Benjamin Lewin originally trained as a geneticist at Cambridge University. He founded the journal Cell in 1974 and was Editor until 1999. He also founded the associated journals Neuron, Immunity, and Molecular Cell. When he left Cell, he founded Virtual Text.
