Neisseria book review

I am pleased to provide the following excerpt from a book review of Neisseria: Molecular Mechanisms of Pathogenesis:

"an excellent, comprehensive and updated review ... The editors, both experienced in the Neisseria field, have recruited 43 contributors from five different countries. Many of these individuals are well-recognized experts, front-line researchers and/or key opinion leaders in their topics. They provide, evaluate and discuss detailed up-to-date understanding, the significance of different findings, theories, hypotheses and conclusions, and future directions in a research, clinical and public health perspective. The volume is valuable and timely ... Most chapters ... are excellent, comprehensive, important, updated, well-written, and contain many relevant references and informative figures/tables summarizing the key information ... the 'future trends' are valuably emphasized in most chapters. Some chapters even recommend good web resources for further reading ... the editors of the present volume have collated an impressive group of well-recognized experts that provide exceedingly interesting, comprehensive and up-to-date understanding regarding molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis in Neisseria, as well as an excellent bibliography for further reading. The volume is valuable, timely and can be highly recommended for researchers, microbiologists, molecular biologists, epidemiologists, clinicians, vaccine manufacturers and students, who are involved and/ or interested in any topic involving pathogenic Neisseria species." from Magnus Unemo (Orebro, Sweden) writing in Expert Rev.
