Cell-to-Cell Communication: Cell-Atlas – Visual Biology in Oral Medicine

The biology that underpins every clinical decision — how the cells of the oral tissues communicate with one another — is explained here in visual terms. Edited by Reinhard Gruber, Bernd Stadlinger and Hendrik Terheyden, the volume takes the form of a cell atlas: the signalling mechanisms between cells translated into images that make comprehensible what goes on beneath what the clinician observes. Its usefulness is twofold, for the professional who wants to ground practice in the real biological processes and for the teacher who needs to explain phenomena that are hard to visualise. It is published in English and relies above all on the image as its means of explanation.
