"Introduction to Geomicrobiology" is a timely and comprehensive overview of how microbial life has affected Earth's environment through time. The book covers the following topics: how microorganisms are classified; the physical constraints governing their growth; molecular approaches to studying phylogenetic diversity, and life in extreme environments energetics; microbial metabolic capabilities, and major biogeochemical pathways; the chemical reactivity of the cell surface, metal sorption, and the microbial role in contaminant transport and bioremediation/biorecovery; microbiological mineral formation and fossilization; the function of microorganisms in mineral dissolution and oxidation, and the industrial and environmental ramifications of these processes; and the role of microorganisms in elemental cycling, including biofilms, microbialites, and during sediment diagenesis. Based on concepts from the earlier chapters, the book concludes with a synopsis of the events that led to the emergence of life, evolution of metabolic processes, and the diversification of the biosphere.
