This atlas of functional ultrastructure provides not only a detailed insight into the complex structure and organization of cells and tissues but also into specific functions fulfilled by the various cellular organelles and the dynamics of the different processes inside cells. The large collection of electron micrographs, together with those from immunoelectron microscopy, is complemented by thorough explanations. Emphasis is placed on an integrated view of structure and function. Specialized cell types from the various tissues, and principles of tissue organization are presented. Under various conditions of disease, characteristic structural alterations may occur which is illustrated by examples.
