| Summary: | Gregory (biochemistry, U. of Manchester) describes photosynthesis on the basis of characteristic time-scales, starting with the absorption of light. He then covers photophysics, photochemistry, electron transport, ATP formation, metabolism, and physiology. The role of photosynthesis in maintaining the biosphere of the planet is noted, particularly in relation to its evolutionary origin. For advanced undergraduates and postgraduates in biology, biochemistry, and microbiology. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR |
