  table of contents: In this introductory level text the authors provide a clear and accessible account of the interactions between microbes, their environment and other organisms, using examples of both beneficial and adverse activities. The microbiology of soil and of nutrient cycling. What habitats are provided by soil? How are microbes involved in nutrient cycling? How is carbon cycled? How is nitrogen cycled? How is sulphur cycled? Plant-microbe interactions. What are mycorrhizas? What symbioses do cyanobacteria form? What symbioses do other nitrogen-fixing bacteria form? From what infections do plants suffer? Fungi. Bacteria. Viruses. How are microbes used to control agricultural pests? The microbiology of drinking water. What are water-borne disease? Cholera. Enteric fever. Bacilliary dysentry. Water-borne campylobacter infections. Water-borne virus infections. Water-borne protozoal diseases. How is water examined to ensure that it is save to drink? How is water purified to ensure that it is safe to drink? How is sewage treated to make it safe? Microbial products. How did microbes contribute to the First World War effort? What role do microbes play in the oil industry and in mining? How are microbial enzymes exploited? How do microbes help in the diagnosis of disease and related applications? How do microbes contribute to the pharmaceutical industry? How do microbes contribute to food technology? Food microbiology. How do microbes affect food? How are fungi used as food? How are microbes involved in bread and alcohol production? How are fermented vegetables and meats produced? Sauerkraut. Dill pickles. Other fermented vegetable products. Fermentation of meats. Silage production. Fermented dairy products. What role do microbes have in food spoilage and preservation? How do microbes cause food spoilage? How can food be preserved? What causes food poisoning?
