Specialized history of science book about an aspect of cell biology. The Golgi Apparatus, a ubiquitous component of all eukaryotic cells, is typically comprised of a series of five to eight cup-shaped, membrane-covered sacs called cisternae that look something like a stack of deflated balloons. The Golgi Apparatus is often considered the "distribution and shipping department" for the cell's chemical products. This book traces the first 100 years of its discovery from the first published accounts from Pavia, Italy, in 1898 to the Centenary Celebration in 1998 to our most recent discoveries. It summarizes the past 50 years beginning with the modern era of Golgi Apparatus discovery, leading up to the present era with almost exclusive focus on molecular biology.
