Collectively, the different chapters cover a wide range of topics that will be of particular interest to cell, developmental and evolutionary biologists alike...The book's multi-disciplinary nature will make it an excellent reference for many scientists. Cell Growth, like many titles from the Cold Spring Harbor monograph series, should stand the test of time and serve as a solid foundation for this ever-expanding field. Nature The book begins with an excellent, although brief, foreword on the principles of cell-size regulation and a first chapter-How Metazoans Reach Their Full Size: The Natural History of Bigness-that discusses key concepts connecting cell growth to organism size. Together, they provide a pleasing intellectual framework for the entire book, and each chapter would also be appropriate as teaching material in a graduate student class. The rest of the book consists of chapters covering more specialized topics... Cell Growth: Control of Cell Size is an authoritative and detailed book on growth regulation. Nature Cell Biology The publication of this book coincides with the onset of a new era in growth studies, and it should be of great use for helping students and researchers appreciate growth as a regulated process playing key roles in many developmental, physiological, and pathological events.
