About the Book

Eukaryotic Microbes presents chapters hand-selected by the editor of the Encyclopedia of Microbiology, updated whenever possible by their original authors to include key developments made since their initial publication. The book provides an overview of the main groups of eukaryotic microbes and presents classic and cutting-edge research on content relating to fungi and protists, including chapters on yeasts, algal blooms, lichens, and intestinal protozoa. This concise and affordable book is an essential reference for students and researchers in microbiology, mycology, immunology, environmental sciences, and biotechnology.

Review :
"The book is well illustrated with diagrams, figures and tables, and the chapters are thorough, well-presented and easy to read. The content has been carefully selected from the huge range of topics that are covered under eukaryotic microbiology, and provides an excellent overview. It will be a useful reference work for researchers and students in many areas of eukaryotic microbiology, and of course for all other microbiologists fascinated by these incredible, beautiful and important organisms."--Microbiology Today
