Full Description
First Published in 1986, this book explores the role of the sarcoplasmic reticulum in the cellular physiology of muscle structures. Carefully compiled and filled with a vast repertoire of notes, diagrams, and references this book serves as a useful reference for Students of Myology, and other practitioners in their respective fields.
