Словарь для биологов.
This edition of The Penguin Dictionary of Biology is an invaluable reference work aimed at students in biological and related sciences, as well as professionals and interested laypersons. The dictionary gives extensive up-to-date coverage of modern as well as classical fields, such as molecular biology, immunology, cytology, genetics, ecology, botany and zoology. Find detailed descriptions of the central concepts and processes that all would-be biologists need to understand. Look at topical issues such as selfish DNA, the human genome project, and sex determination. Taxonomic entries are in keeping with the 'five kingdom' system and where possible, in line with increasingly accepted cladistic principles.
