Features: This book was first used in universities in Florida, Colorado, and other states in the U.S. after its first edition was published in 1996, and was later adopted by other universities. The second edition has also been used as a textbook by universities in Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan, as well as in Singapore, Japan, and other countries. Compared to other popular American textbooks, this book is concise and brief in style, with a shorter length, and has a well-organized systematic content, making it more suitable for Chinese teaching practices. Additionally, it introduces the origins and developments of some key knowledge points and provides related experimental pathways (Experimental Pathways) at the end of each chapter. Some chapters also include "The Human Perspective," which introduces knowledge related to humans, greatly benefiting students' scientific thinking training. This book can be used by undergraduates and postgraduates in comprehensive universities, normal universities, agricultural and forestry universities, medical schools, and can also serve as a reference for scientific research personnel. The book consists of 18 chapters, including:
1. Study Guide for Cell Biology
2. Chemical Basis of Life
3. Energy, Enzymes, and Metabolism
4. Structure and Function of Membranes
5. Aerobic Respiration and Mitochondria
6. Photosynthesis and Chloroplasts
7. Interaction Between Cells and the Environment
8. Cell Membrane Systems: Structure, Function, and Transmembrane Transport
9. Cytoskeleton and Cell Movement
10. The Nature of Genes and Genomes
11. Utilization of Genetic Information: From Transcription to Translation
12. The Cell Nucleus and Gene Expression Regulation
13. DNA Replication and Repair
14. Cell Proliferation
15. Cell Signaling: Communication Between Cells and the Environment
16. Cancer
17. Immunity
18. Molecular Cell Biology Techniques.
The book is followed by a glossary, solutions, and an index.
