During the past few decades we have witnessed an era of remarkable
growth in the field of molecular biology. In 1950 very little was
known of the chemical constitution of biological systems, the
manner in which information was transmitted from one organism to
another, or the extent to which the chemical basis of life is
unified. The picture today is dramatically different. We have an
almost bewildering variety of information detailing many different
aspects oflife at the molecular level. These great advances have
brought with them some breath-taking insights into the molecular
mechanisms used by nature for replicating, distributing and
modifying biological information. We have learned a great deal
about the chemical and physical nature of the macro molecular
nucleic acids and proteins, and the manner in which carbohydrates,
lipids and smaller molecules work together to provide the molecular
setting of living systems. It might be said that these few decades
have replaced a near vacuum of informa tion with a very large
surplus. It is in the context of this flood of information that
this series of monographs on molecular biology has been organized.
The idea is to bring together in one place, between the covers of
one book, a concise assessment of the state of the subject in a
well-defined field. This will enable the reader to get a sense of
historical perspective what is known about the field today - and a
description of the frontiers of research where our knowledge is
increasing steadily."
