About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“This volume focuses on ways that cyanobacteria handle protons and electrons. … This well-produced volume includes many essential color illustrations of structures and mechanisms throughout. It is well written, mainly from a European perspective, and provides an interesting history of ideas and theories about many aspects of energy flow in cyanobacteria, as well as good reviews of evolutionary history as deduced by study of ‘primitive’ or primordial extant species. … Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students and above.” (L. C. Davis, Choice, Vol. 49 (10), June, 2012)Editors and Affiliations
