Cell and Cell Division


Анотация
I hope sincerely that the book "Cell and Cell Division", kindly offered to your attention, will rouse interest in many readers, mostly biologists, cytologists, geneticists, biochemists, scientists, students, and others. Grounds for this give its subjects as a whole. The book is well arranged, the topics are logically connected and the ideas, which the author has considered, are set out and examined from evolutionary and historical point of view representing their development in the nature and the human knowledge of them. In this way the book presents a generalized scientific notion about the conditions and prerequisites which have brought about the emergence of living matter, its formation, evolution and development in cellular structures, i.e. cells — the basic structural and functional biological units from which, via integration, multicellular organisms were developed. Besides, an explanation is given how multicellular organisms can be reproduced by means of cloning of single vegetative cells, grown in tissue and cellular cultures. Since the question about life"s origin and its existence is of exceptional interest the author has searched for an answer in the results from the researches on coacervate drops, the experiments on abiogenic synthesis of organic compounds in laboratory conditions, the more essential finds of fossils in the earth layers, the space flights in the Solar system, and the possibility of its conveyance by other celestial bodies. Great attention is paid to the basic components which take part in the construction and functioning of cells, transference of hereditary traits to the next generations, cellular organelles, mutation changes, endosymbiotic organization of eukaryotic cells, biological aging and neoplasms, cloning, and others. Special attention is paid to the cell division as a mechanism for self-reproduction of cells and for ensuring the succession in living organisms existence. The key to elucidation of this problem has been sought in revealing the modes of its realization at a time. In this respect a contribution of the author is the established by him asynchronous nuclear and cell division as natural biological process, which until recently were thought to be "exceptions" or "unusual" phenomena contradicting the generally accepted rule of synchronous division.
