Textbook in PDF format

What’s New in the Seventh Edition?
Every chapter in the Seventh Edition has been significantly updated with information on new discoveries in the field of cell biology. Examples of this new content include:
Updated information on the continuing impact of human genome research, including what has been learned from sequencing hundreds of thousands of human genomes (Chapter 4), and updated coverage of tumor genomes (Chapter 20).
New research on pathogens, diseases, and methods of combating them, including discussion of COVID-19 (Chapters 1, 5, and 23) and mRNA vaccines (Chapter 24).
Updated research on cellular organization, including new information on biomolecular condensates (Chapters 3, 6, 7, 12, and 14) and on chromosome organization by DNA loop extrusion (Chapters 4, 7, and 17).
Expanded coverage of new microscope technologies, including superresolution light microscopy and atomic resolution electron microscopy (Chapter 9), and new research breakthroughs from cryo-electron microscopy, such as stretch-activated Piezo channels (Chapter 11).
New coverage of evolution, including a new discussion on the diversity of life (Chapter 1), plus updates on both human (Chapter 4) and HIV (Chapter 23) evolution.
In addition, a quarter of the book’s illustrations are either completely new or significantly updated for accuracy, clarity, and visual appeal.
Finally, we are thrilled to offer online assessment, for the first time, with the Digital Problems Book in Smartwork—reimagining the classic companion text, The Problems Book, for twenty-first century instructors and students.
