Index.
'This is a very nice book indeed. The individual contributions are
authoritative and up to date (references to 1990). The
illustrations are clear throughout and an almost comprehensive
index of organisms and subjects is included. The editors are to be
commended for producing a symposium volume that stands out from the
crowd in terms of organization, utility and timeless.'
John R. Dolan, Marine Microbial Food Webs, 1992, 6(1)
'The chapters in this volume are clearly written and all are
informative. The book is well produced. The bibliographies are very
valuable, with reference to both older 'landmark' publications and
recent studies, and there is a good, comprehensive index. The
organisers/editors are to be congratulated for putting together
such a timely volume of particularly great value to those of us who
were not fortunate enough to attend the symposium.'
M.A. Sleigh, European Journal of Protistology 29 (1993)
