Bifidobacteria book reviews

I am pleased to provide the following excerpts from recent book reviews of Bifidobacteria: Genomics and Molecular Aspects:
"This book would be useful to all scientists working on the benefits of intestinal Bifidobacteria. The review of topics will help promote additional research in academic settings as well as industrial development of products. The authors of each chapter are well-recognized scientists from many different settings such as government, academia and industry ... There are few books focused on the benefits of resident bacteria. This book covers the topic of Bifidobacterium extensively and will lead other scientists to move into this area, and their research can lead to products that enhance human health." from Rebecca T. Horvat (University of Kansas Medical Center) writing in Doodys read more ...
"I consider the book to be essential reading for every bifidobacteria researcher, from the PhD student to the experienced scientist, and also recommended reading for everyone with an interest in probiotics" from K. Venema (TNO Quality of Life, Zeist, the Netherlands) writing in Beneficial Microbes (2010) 1: 455-461. read more ...
