图书简介
Pasteurization, penicillin, Koch’s postulates, and gene coding. These discoveries and inventions are vital yet commonplace in modern life, but were radical when first introduced to the public and academia. In this book, the life and times of leading pioneers in microbiology are discussed in vivid detail, focusing on the background of each discovery and the process in which they were developed — sometimes by accident or sheer providence.
Key Features:
o Each chapter focuses on a microbiologist and his/her discoveries
o Serves as an inspiration for future generations of researchers in the field
