Molecular Biology Of The Gene

Now completely up-to-date with the latest research advances, the Seventh Edition retains the distinctive character of earlier editions. Twenty-two concise chapters, co-authored by six highly distinguished biologists, provide current, authoritative coverage of an exciting, fast-changing discipline.

The 4th edition of this long-awaited book is divided into two volumes: Vol.I, General Principles, governing the structures and functions of both procaryotic and eucaryotic genes, and Vol. II, 0-8053-9613, due out in April l987, will feature more advanced, specialized topics.

'Molecular Biology' offers a fresh, distinctive approach to the study of molecular biology. With its focus on key principles, its emphasis on the commonalities that exist between the three kingdoms of life, and its integrated approach throughout, it is the perfect companion to any molecular biology course.

Newly revised and updated, the Fourth Edition is a comprehensive guide through the basic molecular processes and genetic phenomena of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Written for the undergraduate and first year graduate students, the text has been updated with the latest data in the field. It incorporates a biochemical approach as well as a discovery approach that provides historical and experimental information within the context of the narrative.
