Molecular and Cellular Biology of Bone, Part A - Volume 5

These volumes differ from the current conventional texts on bone cell biology.

Biology itself is advancing at breakneck speed and many presentations completely fail to present the field in a truly modern context.

This text does not attempt to present detailed clinical descriptions.

Rather, after discussion of basic concepts, there is a concentration on recently developed findings equally relevant to basic research and a modern understanding of metabolic bone disease.

The book will afford productive new insights into the intimate inter-relation of experimental findings and clinical understanding.

Modern medicine is founded in the laboratory and demands of its practitioners a broad scientific understanding: these volumes are written to exemplify this approach.

This book is likely to become essential reading equally for laboratory and clinical scientists.
