This is the first textbook which introduces the essential elements of glycobiology in a way that is readily accessible to undergraduates and other non-specialists. It will be of wide interest to graduate students, postdoctoral researchers and faculty members in related fields, who want an introduction to this important interdisciplinary field. Coherent stories about what sugars do for cells and organisms are the focus--particularly the importance of glycosylation in protein secretion and stability, cell-cell adhesion and signaling, and innate and adaptive immunity.
