This massive and beautifully bound volume features a definitive collection of published research from Inoué, the cell biophysicist who won the 2003 International Prize for Biology for his pioneering work with the behaviors of living cells. These papers reflect Inoué's landmark work in cell division, dynamic molecular filaments and the development of microscopes that use polarized light and digital technologies to enhance images. Students and researchers in the field of biology and biophysics will be interested in the hundreds of photo- micrographs presented as well as a companion DVD that contains filmed footage of active living cells.
