1: Microbial ROCKS!!
It is very detailed but not hard to read. If you want to know how microbial rocks the world, do not miss this book!!
|
2: Excellent book!
This book presents most "hot" topics in today's marine microbiology. Background, current research and future directions for each area are described by top scientists.
Easy to read and understand; clear graphs and figures; lots of references.
I am a Ph.D. student in marine science and find that book very useful. It's a summary and review of what every student should know about marine microbiology. It's a must-have.

3: An excellent, well-integrated book
"An excellent, well-integrated book that ranges from marine viruses to filamentous cyanophyceans and treats the processes mediated by them. The aerobic heterotrophic bateria in the open ocean and the biogeochemcial role of the assemblages are emphasized in most of the 16 chapters. The authors, none of them a 'pure' microbiologist but all attuned to biogeochemical questions, provide modern reviews of the basics, but ample space is given to open issues. About two-thirds of the very many references date from 1990 to 1999." --Karl Banse, University of Washington

4: Expert Review
"Microbial Ecology of the Oceans" presents timely and up-to-date reviews of various aspects of microbial ecology of the marine water column....Well-written and authoritative chapters should make it useful as a text for advanced courses and for graduate students. Altogether, I can warmly recommend it to anyone interested in microbial ecology and biological oceanography."--Tom Fenchel, Marine Biological Laboratory, University of Copenhagen
