This book would be highly useful to undergraduate students in medical, bioinformatics or biological science that are studying or pursuing research into signal transduction, network or systems biology. This book would also appeal to graduate students or professionals moving into this field of research, without prior knowledge or experience....each chapter engages the reader and conveys the importance of biological systems and networks adequately, thus challenging the reader to continue viewing their specific focus or field of research in complete isolation.

This book provides comprehensive coverage of signal transduction. Unlike other texts currently available, a common theme of data processing by cellular machinery runs through this book which makes it stand out favorably against the competition. Material is up-to-date and covers the areas that are at the forefront of cell signaling research today.

The diversity of appropriate cell cycle topics covered is impressive. Impressive amount of important information. Best summary of cell cycle biochemistry in a text.
Bradley J Stith, University of Colorado
The organization of the proposed book is excellent. The fundamentals of data processing by protein networks and evolution of this data processing in the first two chapters is the unique feature of the book and sets up the framework of cell signal transduction. This should allow students to get a firm grip of the overall pictures of cell signalling networks before zooming into the specific topics. Such chapters are largely missing from other textbooks. Figures are well executed and informative.
