"...very valuable, [...] I doubt that anyone could have done better." (Journal American Aging Association, Vol 23, 2000)<br> <br> "...it is up-to-date, remarkably comprehensive yet concise and contains something for everyone...a wide range of 'Cell Biologists' will find this book valuable." (Cell Biology International, 24th August, 2000)<br> <br> "...a broadly conceived and lively account of mitochondrial biology and biochemistry...not written to be a textbook but, because he writes with such clarity and spark, and...in such an organized and complete manner...it would serve very well as a...text." (Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, Vol. 29, 2001)
