Molecular Biology of the Cell - 7th edition

Can't go wrong with this one..covers all the basics of molecular cell biology

I also own the second edition and a comparison with this edition makes you realise the enormous progress in this field. In addition, there are many examples on the web, videos, tests and so on.I only envy the younger ones who can start from this incredible foundation!!!

I bought as second hand from Amazon warehouse, and well, there’s few minor damages, but I got the online coverage as well, so by far I more then happy!

But so far, I have found it really wordy and unstructured. It's like reading a stream of consciousness. Doesn't develop a subject or provoke any thought before drifting into another topic. Doesn't explain the basics which good textbooks do - they ensure everyone is on the same page. It just rambles.Thousands of excellent science books out there, so no idea why this is on the reading lists.

Excellent book, excellent production. Lot of new information. Great overall buy. The only problem is for individual buyer, most of the video and online resources are inaccessible. That is a great loss. Should remain open to anyone who purchase the book.
