Cell Structure and Function describes the structural and functional features of the diverse cells from which the human body is formed. Focusing on normal cell structure and function, it gives readers a firm grounding in the appearance and behaviour of healthy cells and tissues on which a full understanding of abnormal cell behaviour can be built.
