New-opathies: An Emerging Molecular Reclassification Of Human Disease : An Emerging Molecular Reclassification of Human Diseases

This book presents new insights into the etiology and pathogenesis of systemic diseases recently discovered to be due to specific defects in molecular assemblies, organelles, or other subcellular structures. This new information, of great importance to medical students, physicians, and basic scientists, has not been incorporated into major medical textbooks.The volume will be an important resource for medical or graduate students, investigators and physicians, as it covers major new insights into diverse diseases and concepts missing from pathology textbooks. Each of the eight chapters in the book is written by a leader in the field.
