Rezension

"The value of the book lies in having all of the latest research in one place, masterfully summarized and illustrated, and integrated with the classic literature, which is all well referenced. It will be a useful addition to any biologist's library." - Marcus M. Key Jr., The Quarterly Review of Biology
