New from the publisher of the premier journal Molecular Microbiology - a sister journal devoted to the study of microbial processes in the environment, microbial communities and microbial interactions.Over the last decade there has been a revolution in environmental microbiology and a corresponding explosion in the development of novel experimental approaches and techniques. This has injected tremendous excitement into the subject and attracted many new investigators from very different disciplines which have expanded the field, enriched it intellectually, and sharply increased its dynamism and importance.

 

Over the past 20 years, environmental microbiology has grown from relative obscurity into a vibrant area of both pure and applied science. Environmental microbiology is inherently multidisciplinaryrelying upon contributions from analytical chemistry, geosciences, environmental engineering, public health, ecology, evolution, and microbiology. How is it possible to meet the challenge of integrating these disciplines so that students emerge with knowledge, competence, and enthusiasm?

 

This well-referenced resource is filled with ideas, connections, and concepts that advance an in-depth understanding of this growing segment of biology. Core principles are highlighted with an emphasis on the logic of the science and new, methods-driven discoveries. Numerous up-to-date examples and applications boxes provide tangible reinforcement of material covered. Study questions at the end of each chapter require students to utilize analytical and quantitative approaches, to define and defend arguments, and to apply microbiological paradigms to their personal interests. Essay assignments and related readings stimulate student inquiry and serve as focal points for teachers to launch classroom discussions.

A website with downloadable artwork and answers to study questions is available to instructors at www.blackwellpublishing.com/madsen

 

Environmental Microbiology: From Genomes to Biogeochemistry offers a coherent and comprehensive treatment of this dynamic, emerging field building bridges between basic biology, evolution, genomics, ecology, biotechnology, climate change, and the environmental sciences.
