Summary This book takes a close look at the molecular biology of the cell. It provides a straightforward explanation of the workings of living cell - principally the way in which the molecules of the cell, especially the proteins, the DNA, and the RNA, cooperate to create a system that feeds, moves, responds to stimuli, grows, and divides
