Description
A major revision of the classic manual from ASM. This is the long awaited revision of ASM's extremely popular title, Manual of Methods for General Bacteriology (1981). The goal of the book remains to provide a compact but thorough compendium of reliable methods of working with many different kinds of bacteria in laboratory settings. New to this edition is the recognition of the dramatic role of molecular biological techniques and their impact on bacteriology.
