The strengths of this book lie in its encyclopedic coverage of the topic material, as well as in its currency: the considerable majority of references cited are from the past ten years. The rapid evolution of this field is invariably a downside to a static compendium of knowledge such as Apoptosis, but at the moment, it will serve as an excellent resource for anyone who requires a thorough grounding in the biology and physiology of apoptosis.—Robert Korneluk, The Quarterly Review of Biology, Volume 87, 2012
