Cheese and Microbes Catherine W. Donnelly, University of Vermont, USA
Monograph • Hardback 333 Pages 978-1-55581-586-8 June 2014 • £99.50
Cheese and Microbes presents perspectives from internationally renowned experts on the essential role of these wonderful organisms in transforming milk into an extraordinary galaxy of cheeses. The chapters provide a scientific overview of the association of microbes with cheese through the lens of select cheese varieties that result due to surface mold ripening, internal mold ripening, rind washing, cave aging, and surface smear rind development. The book explains the transformation of milk to cheese and how sensory attributes of cheese are evaluated; discusses the regulations governing cheesemaking, both in the United States and abroad, that ensure safety; explores how the tools of molecular biology provide new insights into the microbial complexity of cheeses; examines the biodiversity of traditional cheeses as a result of traditional practices; and, presents research on the stability of the microbial consortia of select traditional cheese varieties.

Monograph • Paperback 330 Pages 978-1-55581-842-5 June 2014 • £65.00
Emerging infectious diseases are often due to environmental disruption, which exposes microbes to a different niche that selects for new virulence traits and facilitates transmission between animals and humans. Thus, health of humans also depends upon health of animals and the environment – a concept called "One Health." This book presents core concepts, compelling evidence, successful applications, and remaining challenges of One Health approaches to thwarting the threat of emerging infectious disease. Written by scientists working in the field, this book will provide a series of “stories” about how disruption of the environment and transmission from animal hosts is responsible for emerging human and animal diseases.
