About this book

Siddhartha Mukherjee explores cells as the living units from which organisms are built. His account opens with Matthias Schleiden and Theodor Schwann comparing plant and animal tissues and recognizing a common structure. This history of biology and medicine uses the emergence of cell theory to introduce questions about how independent units function together within a larger living whole.
