Peptide Growth Factors and Their Receptors I by Michael B. Sporn, Anita B. Roberts.

This two-volume treatise, the collected effort of more than 50 authors, represents the first comprehensive survey of the chemistry and biology of the set of molecules known as peptide growth factors. Although there have been many symposia on this topic, and numerous publications of reviews dealing w...
