The Cell Cycle: Principles of Control is an account of the mechanisms that control cell division, beginning with a description of the phases and main events of the cell cycle and the main model organisms in cell-cycle analysis. Later chapters focus on the molecules and mechanism of the cell-cycle control system, including the cyclin-dependent kinase family of protein kinases, the cyclins that activate them and the signaling molecules that regulate them, and discuss cell-cycle control in development and the failure of controls in cancer.
The book was published in 2007 and is now out of print and difficult to find. You can download a PDF of the book on this page.
