In this short supplemental textbook, Madhani uses control of yeast mating type as a model for many aspects of cell determination in general. This volume covers such topics as gene silencing, genetic recombination, differentiation, combinatorial gene regulation, mRNA transport to establish asymmetric cell division, signal transduction, evolution of genetic networks, and various aspects of cell biology, including action of cytoskeleton and bud site selection. Includes a Foreword by the author of "A Genetic Switch."
