Microbiology: An Evolving Science promotes a clear understanding of this rapidly advancing field in two distinctive ways. First, an emphasis on current research, genomics, and molecular genetics enables students to learn how microbiologists think as they master the discipline's foundational topics. Second, a stunning and consistently executed art program helps students visualize key microbiological processes and structures.
Biography
John W. Foster received his B. S. from the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and Science (now the University of the Sciences in Philadelphia), and his Ph. D. from Hahnemann University (now Drexel University School of Medicine) also in Philadelphia, where he worked with Albert G. Moat. After postdoctoral work at Georgetown University, he joined the Marshall University School of Medicine in West Virginia and is currently teaching at the University of South Alabama College of Medicine in Mobile, Alabama. Dr. Foster has co-authored three editions of the textbook Microbial Physiology and has published over 100 journal articles describing the physiology and genetics of microbial stress responses. He has served as Chair of the Microbial Physiology and Metabolism division of the American Society for Microbiology, and is a member of the editorial advisory board of the journal Molecular Microbiology. Joan L. Slonczewski received her B. A. from Bryn Mawr College, and her Ph. D. in Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry from Yale University, where she studied bacterial motility with Robert M. Macnab. After postdoctoral work at University of Pennsylvania, she has since taught undergraduate microbiology at Kenyon College, where she earned a Silver Medal in the National Professor of the Year program of the Council for the Advancement and Support of Education. She has published numerous research articles with undergraduate co-authors on bacterial pH regulation, and has published five science fiction novels including A Door into Ocean, which earned the John W. Campbell Memorial Award. She serves as At-large Member representing Divisions on the Council Policy Committee of theAmerican Society for Microbiology, and is a member of the Editorial Board of the journal Applied and Environmental Microbiology.
