There's a new way of looking at cells and how they work based on this modern cell theory in the book Cells, Gels and the Engines of Life.
This book describes how cells work. It challenges the current wisdom of cell function, and presents a new modern cell theory. It has a simpler approach to fundamental processes such as movement, transport, division, and communication, based on sound physical principles. The book is profusely illustrated with many color figures. It is written for the non-expert in an accessible, often humorous style.
