Recenzii
'This will be an excellent reference source for the expert.' - Aslib Book Guide
'The book provides an excellent overview of the burgeoning field of apoptosis. It is a superb reference for basic scientists or anyone interested in this fast growing research area that shows no sign of apoptotic shrinkage in the near future.' - The Quarterley Review of Biology
