Reviews

From the book reviews: The purpose is to summarize our knowledge of biofilm-based HAIs, for infections that are well recognized as biofilm-based as well as for less well-characterized infections. ... this is a worthy addition to the shelves of clinician-scientists wishing to gain a better appreciation of the role of biofilms in HAIs and those who desire a concise compilation of forward-looking approaches to treatment and prevention of these infections. (Mark E. Rupp, Doody's Book Reviews, March, 2015)
