Ueber Zellbildung und Zelltheilung. 3te. Aufl.

Jena: Gustav Fischer, 1880.

A pioneer work on the formation and division of cells. In this third edition Strasburger established one of the principles of modern cytology, i.e., that independent cell formation does not occur but that fresh nuclei invariably arise through the division of older ones. The first edition of this book appeared in 1875.
