Stanica: molekularni pristup

by Geoffrey M. Cooper, Robert E. Hausman

Knjiga "The Cell - a Molecular Approach", autora G. Coopera i R. Hausmana, jedan je od najpopularnijih udžbenika molekularne i stanične biologije u svijetu. Svoju veliku popularnost stekao je poglavito zbog jednostavnoga i studentu prilagođenoga prikazivanja gradiva. Iako je posrijedi vrlo opsežan udžbenik, koji dodiruje i najsuvremenije teme stanične i molekularne biologije, njegova organizacija i pedagoški pristup izlaganju gradiva omogućuju studentu da to inače vrlo složeno gradivo razmjerno lako usvoji.

i’m adding this to my goodreads BC I READ THIS FROM START TO FINISH

all 20 chapters. the glossary. the index. even the table of contents (probably over 20 times)

textbook was not too great, it’s full of text blocks and over complicated at times. like why would you explain the full experiment behind a discovery in the middle of the sentence, without first explaining what that discovery is. i don’t need to know that AKT was discovered in mice, just tell me the pathway first!!!

barely any mention of plant biology (0/10).


overall, very enjoyable. maybe one of the few books that are over 700 pages that i’ve been so engaged with. the book tapped into my unlocked potential. also probably permanently changed my brain chemistry (for good or for bad, i’ll never know)

molcell2 was one of the best courses! now i will read real books and pray for my grade 🙏🏻

lots of good illustrations, both schematic drawings with lumpy blobs for all the proteins and also really cool micrographs. i also liked the "key experiment" pages.

but the organization was bass ackwards. they started with chemistry, then DNA, then larger structures, until finally the cell cycle. so YOU NEVER KNEW THE BIGGER PICTURE. again and again, they would sort of hint at the larger context and then say "this is discussed in chapter 11" or whatever. the authors made the fatal mistake of so many teachers - they know the subject inside out, so they teach it from the inside out. it makes sense to them that way because they already know all the stuff from later chapters. but the student doesn't.

plus, they wrote with no personality at all. not one joke, anecdote, exclamation, etc., in the entire book.

finally, it was pretty clear that sometimes they wrote two pages and the publisher said "turn this into half a page" and so it became an ultradense series of technical sentences without explanation.

ah, well, i learned a ton, though. most interesting factoid: you can cut out two thirds of a rat's liver and it will grow back as good as new in a few days. wow.

Horrible ,

it’s full of info , looks great and all but after a paragraph or two you can’t continue reading , your brain begs you to stop and it shuts down automatically.

You can’t even use it to sleep , sleeping after reading this brings horrific nightmares.

like it or not, this is an important book for PostGrad student like me... *sigh*
Oh well, let's just take it as a light reading... *lol*

The best book for cell biology.
Very illuminating and explanatory :)
It helped me a lot.

Thanks for RUINING MY LIFE already. Too detailed

best book for cell biology

[Terry Shackleford · Rating 2 out of 5]

I teach cell biology and wanted to try a new textbook with a better online platform for our students. I started out with a great attitude and wanted to love this book. I just got to where I hated it! It just had too many details and didn't do a good job breaking things down. The active learning exercises were stupid. I just didn't like it at all and my students liked it even less.

Mostly easy to understand and nicely written with informative pictures. But I kept wondering if the author just stopped repeating the same thing in different words how much shorter the chapters would be...

[Pablo · Rating 5 out of 5]

I can´t compare it to other book because i studied all from this one, but it was a really nice read

[Nida · Rating 3 out of 5]

I don't understand the hype about this book. Tge illustrations are beyond good but the text is inferior

Oduzelo mi je 6 tjedana mog zivota, ali sam dobila 5🔥

No me lo he leído entero pero espero aprobar biología después de haber estado trabajándome los capítulos que caían 🙏

an excellent book

This is really helpful to increase my acknowledgement of basic science.
