Review:
"This book does a good job explaining what a biotherapeutic agent is and what role it may play in the areas of microbiology, infectious disease resistance, and treatment options. . .It is written in a manner that those in a wide variety of disciplines would have no difficulty understanding. . .[the book is] interesting and challenging to some of our goals in the area of chemotherapy-resistant pathogens of the future."-Doody's Health Sciences Book Review Journal
