Semi-related question: Anyone know of any good courses online that are intro to molecular and cellular biology related? Thanks, my grad school grades aren't the best and I think it's my lack of bio foundation that's hurting.

also: great books on those topics have existed for decades

Any suggestions? I'm also looking for some resources on those topics.

I mean, yes, but alas, my study habits are better with lectures and learning groups as a supplement to the written material. Any suggestions on specific books? I know just about any are good, however some are almost canonical(For example: Jackson is THE electromagnetism text, others will do, but just about everyone learns from Jackson. Is there such a thing with mol-bio?)

Specific books:

* The Cell: A Molecular Approach, Cooper

* Molecular Biology of The Cell, Alberts

Theses are the main two books in the field of molecular biology. If you want to go more specific, let me know.
