Molecular Biology Of The Cell by Alexander Johnson, Bruce Alberts, Julian Lewis, Keith Roberts, Martin Raff, Peter Walter (2002, Package)

Well, if I had ever received the product I could write a review on it, but since I haven't even gotten yet after two months I guess I really have nothing to say. The picture of it looks really nice.

I bought the book about 2 months ago, never recieved it. I am currently filing fraud with my bank on this purchase. Hopefully this seller isn't allowed to be selling things anymore. Ripping off college students is very, very low.

I never received the item. This item was purchased over two months ago and the item never showed up. I attempted to contact the seller through e-mail and I never recieved a response. I am currrently in the process of filing a claim. I hate to make anyone out to be a bad guy, but I am just sharing my experience with this item.

I never received this item. The seller was kicked off ebay and I was given a refund. I was hoping to receive it and waited a long time, but the book never arrived. I did receive my money back thankfully.

I bought this for my Bio 344 class. It does it's job for the class, but it really is boring as dirt. Even the colorful pictures and diagrams(Which are sometimes colored pencil drawings...) are boring. It is long winded and doesn't explain it's own topics thoroughly enough. Why is all this info important. It may never say. Plus it is gigantic. The Brand new red version looks to be the same idea so if you need the new version for a class, snub the teacher and buy this older version.

Like all molecular biology books, this text probably needs updated at least every 3-4 years and is due for another revision. Otherwise the text and pictures are excellent.

This book fails in comparison to many other cell and molecular books that are available. I would highly recommend Harvey Lodish's 5th edition of Molecular Biology of the Cell. It does a much better job than Alberts. Also, the book is extremely big and heavy. There is a lot of excess junk in Alberts' Molecular Biology of the Cell that is superfluous.

Sorry but this is not a review about the book. Rather about ebay and its sellers. I ordered this book 2 months back and till date neither have I received the book nor refund. The seller - jacibooks - has a good ebay rating. However, he never replied to my numerous emails and i cant even leave a feedback because he unregistered himself. Ebay was of no help to me. It seems ebay is more helpful to these sellers than to the buyers. I have filed a claim and I hope this is handled in a professional manner. This happened with two books that I ordered and has given me a very bitter experience. I would now prefer to pay more money rather than getting cheated on ebay.
AVOID ebay.

Excellent condition, fast shipping.
Highly recommended. It was a pleasure to doing business with you.

The sent time is a little bit longer, however, the book is a brandnew, which far exceed my expectation! Thanks, a great purchase

This book was an excellent reference for celluar and molecular biology. There are lots of descriptive figures, examples, and detailed explanations.

insane bargain!!!! The book is in great condition and at such a cheap price, who couldn't love this deal? Thanks guys. I will definitely buy my books with you in the future.

Unfortunately I wrote a review yesterday that I did not receive the item - after 40 days of the sale - I did receive the book. I emailed the seller twice and he did not respond - after filing a dispute on Sunday I received the book on Monday - if the seller had responded to my email on when it was shipped it would have been much better .... poor business!

great classic textbook. even the old edition is still up-to-date enough to be really useful for all molecular biology types of courses!!

the book was in good condition. It did not take a long time to recieve and I did not have any problems with the seller of the item.

This book is very heavy in content and in weight. The serious student will appreciate the knowledge gained in this detailed yet very easy to understand text.

the book was shipped out promptly and in good condition. over all, I will rate this time business as excellent.

Almost brand new with little scratch on cover. I really love it! The seller also sent it quite on time.

The book was perfectly described. It was still in great condition and very easy to use. Pleasure to do business with you.

It was obvious that the book was used, but it was well maintained. Every book that I have purchased from ebay has exceeded my expectations of buying over the internet, without seeing the exact product.

I found this book to be an essential resource in understanding the biological processes behind genetic diversity and mechanisms for creating gene products. It is great if you need more information than what is taught in class, especially if you have an instructor that doesn't mesh with your learning style.

I brought it for the class I selected this semester. it took 2 week to get the book. of course it is expected time for the media mail.

great book, brand new. Thanks!

i bought this book to improve my knowledge of molecular biology before graduate school. this book was used at my university (UC Berkeley) in classes that i never had the chance to take. so i thought it was worth buying the book to study over the summer, and to have as a reference.....and it was well worth. the book is detailed, in depth, and complete with easy to understand graphics and layout. its big, heavy, and daunting, but it is also full of information i know i need.
