"... a major strength of this book is that it covers many diverse aspects of V. cholerae ecology, epidemiology, adaptation and evolution. The chapters on genomics and evolution, population genetics and emerging clones present up to date information and relevant references for further exploration of these topics. In addition, there is a chapter on molecular ecology that discusses what is known about the evolution of toxigenic V. cholerae strains and how they survive in the environment, a topic which is extremely timely ... I found this book to be a great resource for describing the current state of the art of V. cholerae molecular biology on a wide range of topics, both medically and environmentally relevant. Thus, this book is valuable reading to anyone involved in the field of cholera research."
