Brilliant ... medical magic ... written with compassionate warmth
and humour
*Daily Telegraph*
Wonderfully ambitious... Cell biology is complex and as big a topic
as life itself; I'm not sure a writer could cover it better
*The Times*
If you are not already in awe of biology, The Song of the Cell
might get you there. It is a masterclass
*Guardian*
Vast, important ... optimistic
*Mail on Sunday*
Some of the writing in The Song of the Cell is so lovely that you
can get caught up in its music
*New York Times*
