About the Book

The field of environmental microbiology encompasses aspects of several areas of study including microbial ecology, molecular genetics, and environmental science.Environmental Microbiology is the first book to offer a comprehensive discussion of this field as a discipline, which the authors define as the study of microbial fate and activity in air, water, and soil, and the resulting impact on human health and welfare. While the roots of environmental microbiology can be traced to sanitary engineering (water and wastewater treatment), the field has grown to include other practical issues such as bioremediation, the control of known and emerging waterborne pathogens, microbial risk assessment, and environmental biotechnology. Five general areas are emphasized in this text: (i) Foundation chapters, (ii) microbial environments, (iii) detection of microbial activity, (iv) the impact of microbial activity on the environment in terms of nutrient cycling and pollutant fate, and (v) detection and control of pathogens in the environment. Designed for courses at senior undergraduate and graduate levels, Environmental Microbiology will also serve as an essential reference for environmental microbiologists, microbial ecologists, and environmental engineers, as well as those interested in epidemiology, water and wastewater treatment, and biotechnology.Key FeaturesAmong the Highlights of this state-of-the-art Textbook:* Includes foundation chapters for background in biological and earth sciences* Covers emerging areas such as transport Review "This book... provides a good source of reference of many of the important concepts relating to environmental microbiology... It would be a useful text for undergraduate students with interests in this area of microbiology... The information is well written and presented and is supported by good figures and tables, as well as case studies, which are effectively used to highlight particular issues."- Microbiology Today From the Back Cover The field of environmental microbiology encompasses aspects of several areas of study, including microbial ecology, molecular genetics, and environmental science.Environmental Microbiology is the first book to offer a comprehensive discussion of this field as a discipline, which the authors define as the study of microbial fate and activity in air, water, and soil and the resulting impact on human health and welfare.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
