Description
Summary:This book is likely to be of interest to many microbial ecol-ogists, although given its price probably only those researchers active in polar microbiology will want to buy their own copy. It is a volume which should be found in most research libraries, however. It could form the basis of a specialized course on polar or Antarctic microbiology, although it would probably need additional material from the current literature in certain emerg-ing research areas, such as picoplankton dynamics, iron limi-tation, and the recent discovery of abundant Archaea in Ant-arctic surface waters.
