    CELL BIOLOGY A Comprehensive Treatise Volume 1 Genetic Mechanisms of Cells Edited by LESTER GOLDSTEIN DAVID M. PRESCOTT 1978, 448 pp./ISBN: 0-12-289501-0 FROM THE PREFACE: As a reflection of the fundamental role of genetics in cell biology, as in most areas of biology, the introduc¬ tory volume of this treatise is devoted to genetic mechanisms. Since it was impossible to cover the full range of these mechanisms in one volume, we have focused on subjects that have, or will have, particular relevance for cell biology and that are not likely to be dealt with adequately in traditional textbooks.

Esposito, Gene Conversion, Paramutation, and Controlling Elements: A Treasure of Exceptions. Peter B. Moens, The Onset of Meiosis. Spencer W. Brown and H. Sharat Chandra, Chromo¬ some Imprinting and the Differential Regulation of Homologous Chromosomes. Nils R. Ringertz and TKorfinn Ege, Use of Mutant, Hybrid, and Recon¬ structed Cells in Somatic Cell Genetics. E. D. Garber, Cytogenetics. Ruth Sager, Cytoplasmic Inheritance. Louise B. Preer and John R.
