The effect of pressure on biological entities is obvious: living things don't last long when compressed. These eighteen articles, edited by Michiels (Katholieke Universiteit, Leuven), Bartlett (Scripps Institute of Oceanography) and Aertsen (Katholieke Universiteit, Leuven) detail how minute life forms react to pressure. Several articles address microbes that have evolved ways of surviving at the bottom of the sea. Others comment on how pressure can be used to stop the growth of bacteria and viruses and the problems inherent in doing so. This is a highly technical study, aimed at professional microbiologists. However the conclusions are of interest to those in the food industry, especially packaging. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
