Rezensionen

Reviews of the first edition:
`Its eight short chapters are clearly written and each addresses a key aspect of muscle physiology or biochemistry. Particularly useful are the author's efforts to correlate information derived from different experimental approaches - mechanical, biochemical and ultrastructural - wherever possible and to describe experimental techniques that have played key roles in our current knowledge.'
Journal of Bioenergetics and Biomembranes
`It will be a relief to have a well-written and authoritative account to refer students to, if only to prove that I am not making it all up.'
FEBS
`C R Bagshaw integrates information previously scattered in general texts and reviews, and presents difficult concepts in an understandable manner.'
