Synopsis In the last two decades the field of cell biology has undergone a veritable revolution, leading to major advances in our understanding of cell structure and function. The Convergence of cytological, genetic and biochemical approaches has generated a rich panorama of detail, the significance of which we are still attempting to unravel. The present title is being written as an introduction to this rapidly growing field.
