From the reviews:"This book ... deals with one of the most dynamic trends in Biology, namely Systems Biology of Microorganisms. ... Most of the chapters are of direct and immediate usefulness for scientists to start their own experiments with respect to different aspects of systems biology of a given microorganism or community/environment. ... In my opinion, the purpose of this book ... to introduce the reader to some of the established and state-of-the-art technologies that are being used to study microbial systems biology - is fully accomplished."
