This book is composed of a set of chapters contributed by past and
present collaborators of the Nobel laureate Sir Andrew Huxley,
covering the areas of muscle research to which he has made major
contributions. The purpose of the book is to discuss the way that
muscle works, asking questions at a fundamental level about the
molecular basis of muscle tone production and muscle contraction.
The majority of the chapters are concerned with muscle physiology
and the relation between structure and function. The process of
activation of muscle is dealt with, together with the mechanism of
contraction itself. Although most of the book concerns itself with
vertebrate skeletal muscle, several of the chapters deal with
cardiac muscle. The book also features two introductory chapters
discussing Sir Andrew's achievements in both nerve and muscle
physiology. All those interested in the structure and function of
muscle, or cell motility in general, will wish to read this book.
