Cell and Molecular Biology gives students the tools they need to understand the science behind cell biology.

Karp explores core concepts in considerable depth, and presents experimental detail when it helps to explain and reinforce the concept being explained.

This fifth edition continues to offer an exceedingly clear presentation and excellent art program, both of which have received high praise in prior editions..
