This book details the widely accepted hypothesis that the majority
of bacteria in virtually all ecosystems grow in matrix-enclosed
biofilms. The author, who proposed this biofilm hypothesis, uses direct
evidence from microscopy and from molecular techniques, presenting
cogent reasons for moving beyond conventional culture methods that
dominated microbiology throughout the last century. Bacteria grow
predominantly in biofilms in all natural, engineered, and pathogenic
ecosystems, and this book provides a solid basis for the understanding
of bacterial processes in environmental, industrial, agricultural,
dental and medical microbiology. Using a unique "ecological"
perspective, the author explores the commensal and pathogenic
colonization of human organ systems.
