Garland Science

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Garland Science, a subsidiary of the Taylor & Francis Group, is a publishing group that specializes in developing textbooks in a wide range of life science subjects, including cell and molecular biology, immunology, protein chemistry, genetics, and bioinformatics. It was founded in the late 1960s by Gavin Borden (1940-1991) and gained prominence through publishing the textbook Molecular Biology of the Cell (formerly by James D. Watson; authors of the current edition include Bruce Alberts & Peter Walter), which has been lauded as “the most influential cell biology textbook of its time.”^[1]

Garland Science publications also include The Biology of Cancer (by Robert Weinberg), Immunobiology (authors including Charles Janeway), Genomes 3 (by Terry Brown), Biology Today: An Issues Approach (by Eli C. Minkoff) and Molecular Biology of the Cell: A Problems Approach (by John Wilson and Tim Hunt).
