In this text for upper-level undergraduates and graduate students, Madsen (microbiology, Cornell University) highlights five core concepts, with an emphasis on the logic of the science and new, methods-driven discoveries. After an introduction to the significance and history of environmental microbiology, chapters cover the formation of the biosphere, physiological ecology, the Earth's microbial habitats, microbial diversity, generating and interpreting information in environmental microbiology, microbial biogeochemistry, special and applied topics, and future frontiers. Examples and application boxes provide reinforcement of material covered. Study questions require students to use analytical and quantitative approaches, to define and defend arguments, and to apply microbiological paradigms to their personal interests. Essay assignments are also included. The art programs features a wealth of color photos and maps, and detailed color diagrams explaining concepts.
