Abstract

This book has been written by well known scientists across globe. The editor is meticulously divided the book into seven parts comprising of 31 chapters that focus on the following aspects: (i) QS mediated processes, (ii) QS Systems in Microbes, (iii) Detectors for QS Signals, (iv) Natural QSIs, (v) Synthetic QSIs, (vi) Alternative Strategies as QSIs, (vii) Biotechnological Applications of QSIs. “Quorum Sensing vs Quorum Quenching: A Battle with No End in Sight” edited by Vipin Chandra Kalia (2015) is not only compiled the dispersed pieces of literature but also provided in-depth knowledge of QS mechanisms, strategies to inhibit QS. The most excellent thing about this book is that the assembled chapters have been written in a very easy and beautiful manner by eminent scientists from around the world in the respective area.
