description: The author's biggest concern is that the association-induction (AI) hypothesis has not yet replaced the membrane-pump theory in high school and college curricula (Ling doubts cells have the energy to pump). He outlines the rise and slow fall of the membrane and membrane pump theories, and the growth of AI. Ling who has written several books published by Blaisdell, Perseus, and Krieger is an employee of the Fonar Corporation, makers of MRI devices and the parent company of Pacific Press, whose only book this is to date. The volume's production values and editorial standards are not first rate, perhaps to keep the price low in hopes of wide distribution. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
