Used this book during my studies and found in it most information for my microbiology class (and it was not an easy task, teacher was very demanding)!

This book I used when I did my masters of Food Science. This book has nominated as a reference book for the course work of Food Microbiology. To have the reference copy I ordered this book for my personnel library.
Good overview and coverage
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This book has a relatively good coverage of most microbiological issues, but I would have liked to seen more coverage on yeasts and also food and industrial applications. Thorough coverage on food borne illnesses.
