Free download Cell Biology (3rd edition) authored by Thomas D. Pollard, William C. Earnshaw, Jennifer Lippincott-Schwartz and Graham T. Johnson in pdf.
According to authors, “For this edition, we revised the entire book, taking the reader to the frontiers of knowledge with exciting new information on every topic. We start with new insights about the evolution of eukaryotes, followed by macromolecules and research methods, including recent breakthroughs in light and electron microscopy.
We begin the main part of the book with a section on basic molecular biology before sections on membranes, organelles, membrane traffic, signaling, adhesion and extracellular matrix, and cytoskeleton and cellular motility. As in the first two editions, we conclude with a comprehensive section on the cell cycle, which integrates all of the other topics.
The book emphasizes molecular mechanisms because they reveal the general principles of cellular function. As a further demonstration of this generality, we use a wide range of experimental organisms and specialized cells and tissues of vertebrate animals to illustrate these general principles.
We also use medical “experiments of nature” to illustrate physiological functions throughout the book, since connections have now been made between most cellular systems and disease. The chapters on cellular functions integrate material on specialized cells and tissues.
Epithelia, for example, are covered under membrane physiology and junctions; excitable membranes of neurons and muscle under membrane physiology; connective tissues under the extracellular matrix; the immune system under connective tissue cells, apoptosis, and signal transduction; muscle under the cytoskeleton and cell motility; and stem cells and cancer under the cell cycle and signal transduction.”
