E. coli in Motion

by Howard C. Berg

Published 1 October 2003
Escherichia coli, commonly referred to as E. coli, has been the
organism of choice for molecular genetics for decades. Its machinery
and mobile behavior is one of the most fascinating topics for cell
scientists. Scientists and engineers, not trained in microbiology,
and who would like to learn more about living machines, can see it as
a unique example. This cross-disciplinary monograph covers more than
thirty years of research and is accessible to graduate students and
scientists alike.
