Reviews

From a preview of a previous volume:
`The heterogeneity of topics...is very ambitious, and the result is, overall, successful because of the high quality of the individual contributions...highly recommended.'
Amercian Scientist.

`Well written and timely...of interest to all those involved in the study of this organelle and for those interested in the medical and genetic aspects of lysosomal disorders...recommended.'
Journal of Medical Genetics
