Review
“This book offers a very nice general overview of the current knowledge of signal transduction and regulation. The author has done an great job of assimilating an inherently complicated subject into clear, simple, and logical descriptions.” (
The Quarterly Review of Biology, June 2009)
"Krauss has set out to update a general resource for those with interest in signal transduction. The addition of an introductory chapter (Ch.1) makes this edition well pitched to undergraduate with some knowledge of cell biology and
Biochemistry and would serve as a suitable textbook for an upper-level undergraduate course in this area. the text would also be a useful reference to beginning graduate students in signal transaction and a ready compliment to course that rely on primary literature for course discussions. For instructors, this book would make an great companion for teaching signal transduction, as the figures are well laid out and illustrate clearly many points." (

Reader Reviews
One gets the sense upon reading this book that it was translated into English from some esoteric dead language and not from that close cousin of English, contemporary German. One would think that a book this expensive and a publisher this well-known would be able to fork out enough cash to hire a competent translator. If you thought signal transduction was Talmudic in its complexity, you will not be disappointed as you try to unravel the meaning of sentences in this truly awful and labored translation.
