excellent book

This is a GREAT book, very complete and lucid as the sky. It is revised and expanded from the earlier "Growth of the bacterial cell," and retains something of an emphasis on growth economy. I strongly suggest the book. I am not sure "Physiology [...]" includes 100% of the material from "Growth [...]," but I see no substantial reason not to study "Physiology [...]" only. These authors, fine scientific writers, moreover are mostly (or all) editors of the massive king-of-the-hill reference "Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium: Cellular and Molecular Biology." So they know what the hell they are doing, in a big way. But these books are far shorter and more readable than the latter; you can read em while you eat lunch. However they are written at a high level and to an impressive completeness. I prefer this title over the David White text, not that the White book is bad at all. Whether there are more up-to-date titles in the same niche, I don't know. I do rather doubt that they could be as good as this title, especially with respect to growth economy. This is not a book on pathogenesis or stress responses, nor does it have much depth on ecology.
