Beskrivning

The purpose of this book is to focus attention on recent developments in steroid and sterol hormone action. Steroid hormone recep tor research and the study of nuclear events mediated by steroids are presently the most intensely studied aspects of sterol hormone action and our selection of topics reflects this trend.
