About this book
Reviews
From the reviews of the first edition:
"Bone Formation … focuses on the cells that initiate the process of osteogenesis, its regulation, and its disorders. … Experimentalists will appreciate the large amount of cell culture and cell line information made available in the form of extensive tables not readily available elsewhere. … This fundamental science book gives a clear view of the most recent knowledge in research on bone formation. It is presented in a way that makes it easily accessible to an orthopedic surgeon … ." (Claude Karger, European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery & Traumatology, Vol. 14 (4), 2004)
