Recensione


'...the clear illustrations and easy-to-read text in Microbial Life convey the excitement and immediacy of a subject that is almost always in the news.' - John Heritage, Journal of Biological Education
 
'Microbial Life represents a refreshing change of emphasis and style compared to more standard microbiology textbooks...has authors who are still at the cutting edge of bacterial research and yet have found time to contribute to a text. This research activity shows throughout the book...' - Elizabeth Sockett, Microbiology Today (Society for General Microbiology)
