Ls book is an account of what physical chemistry h . . to say about the structural, electrical and transport properties of biological membranes and their simplest model-the lipid bilayer. The accent throughout is on basic ideas. In contrast to the essentially descriptive ap proach characteristic of texts on membrane biochemistry, our underlying themes are the role of force and entropy in maintaining membrane organization, in determining the electric fields and ionic environment of membranes, and in regulating the passage of molecules and ions across membranes. Although experimental findings will always be the touch stone against which theory will be ... Read more

Reviews for The Physical Chemistry of Membranes. An Introduction to the Structure and Dynamics of Biological Membranes.
Teachers of undergraduate courses in chemistry, biochemistry and biophysics... will find in this book much useful material for some final-year options of biophysical nature. Its greatest impact, however, will be on postgraduate courses taking a deeper look at membrane phenomena. - Times Higher Education Supplement
