Critics Review

“In this two volume series Weiss lays the foundations of cellular biophysics on physical principles in a framework that should be easily accessible to any student with a basic understanding of calculus and differential equations. The extensive set of thoughtful problems provided with each chapter will be invaluable in solidifying the student’s understanding. I think it will be tremendous fun to teach from these texts.”–Murray B. Sachs, Massey Professor and Director, Department of Biomedical Engineering, Johns Hopkins University
“This beautiful treatment of cellular biophysics is a landmark. It is comprehensive, scholarly, interesting and clear as a bell. Everyone seriously interested in how cells do business with their surroundings will want to read it.”–Charles F. Stevens, The Salk Institute
