The cell cycle : principles of control
Cell division is a central biological process: it yields the cells required for development and growth, and supplies the replacement cells to repair and maintain old or damaged tissue. This book provides an overview of the process of cell division - from chromosome division, through mitosis, cytokinesis, and meiosis
