Booknews

The question is why cells die, and this treatment owes as much to medicine and pathology as to cell biology. Human disease (myocardial infarct, ischemic renal necrosis, the shock liver, cyanide poisoning, immune injury, poisoning by heavy metals, etc.) is the reference of the discussion of cell injury and cell death, which is integrated into the larger medical project of expanding means of patient care and the cure of disease.
