Reviews:
"I hope that this book will help stimulate and encourage researchers to enter the study of the next exciting phase of the plant cell cycle control."
Biologia Plantarum

"Each chapter comprises a thorough, self-contained review, but there is a common style throughout the book and extensive cross-referencing between chapters. Overall, this book will serve as a milestone for research in this area - it has managed to distil most of the relevant information to date and points the way forward to the next exciting phase of this research. In conclusion, Plant Cell Division is a solid overview of the molecular biology of the plant cell cycle and is a must for all researchers and students interested in this area."
Trends in Cell Biology

"Each author has caught the excitement of the topic under discussion and is prepared to speculate on the newer developments. This is a good read for anybody interested in plant cell and molecular biology, from final year undergraduates to researchers."
The Biologist

"In my view, there is no better book from which to gain an overview of current plant cell cycle research and the key questions that it addresses. This book has a clarity and content that is ideal for both advanced undergraduates and researchers."
