Garland Science

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.” [cite book |last=Friedberg |first=Errol C. |title=The Writing Life of James D.
