Calcium : a matter of life or death /

Calcium is a versatile carrier of signals regulating many aspects of activity such as fertilisation to create new life and programmed cell death to end it. This volume is a state-of-the-art summary of our present knowledge in the quickly growing field of calcium signaling.
