Cells, Gels and the Engines of Life: A New, Unifying Approach to Cell Function
Publisher:
Oxford University Press
Book Description:
An award winning book that challenges the current wisdom of how cells work in a visionary, provocative, and accessible way... reads like a detective story...
This highly praised book emphasizes the role of cell water and the gel-like nature of the cell, building on these features to explore the mechanisms of communication, transport, contraction, division, and other essential cell functions. Lucidly written for the non-expert, the book is profound enough for biologists, chemists, physicists and engineers to devour.
Reviews:
5 Stars “This book is heretical and courageous, and - if it can escape burning - may become a seminal landmark in our understanding of living systems.” Stuart R. Hameroff
5 Stars “An unorthodox conceptual view is put forth that attempts to globally explain how the living cell functions. We are rewarded by the unparalleled joy of feeling part of a discovery itself. This intellectual journey is well worth every minute. And, who knows, Pollack might be right, too!” Miklos Kellermayer
5 Stars “I applaud the work. I recommend it as required reading for just about everybody: the writing style makes it accessible for even high school students, but it is not too plebian to challenge even a professor or researcher in the area.” Jacob Hantla
