"Written by one of the pioneers of the field, this is a unique textbook that presents many topics from the broader area of microbial physiology. ... the work contains a large table of contents, a list of over 200 abbreviations in the front matter, and is well indexed with about 700 terms. ... Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through researchers and faculty." (L. C. Davis, Choice, Vol. 54 (4), December, 2016)
