Cell Fusion edited by A.E. Sowers.

Over the last decade the volume Membrane Fusion. edited by Poste and Nicholson, has probably served as one of the major sources of review in­ formation on fusion in membrane systems. Since its publication much new information has been collected. New methods of inducing fusion have been invented or d...
