Notes: "Providing a comprehensive insight into cellular signaling processes in bacteria, this is the first book to cover intercellular, transmembrane, as well as intracellular signaling and its relevance for biofilm formation, differentiation, host pathogen interactions, symbiotic relationships, chemotaxis and various stress responses.  In addition, it deals in detail with principal bacterial signaling mechanisms - making this a valuable resource for all advanced students in microbiology."--Back cover.
