"this book addresses important themes in the molecular epidemiology of bacterial pathogens ... Another consistent strength of this book is the detailed coverage of antibiotic resistance across the entire spectrum of food and waterborne pathogens ... for clinicians, food or environmental scientists, or public health officials interested in gaining a foundation in the molecular microbiology of this important group of pathogens, this book would provide an excellent foundation. Alternatively, for those with expertise in specific organisms, this book provides an interesting look across the spectrum of food and waterborne bacterial pathogens." from Jason B. Harris (Harvard Medical School, Boston, USA) writing in Clin. Inf. Dis. (2013) read more ...
