A Guide to the World of the Yeasts J. F. T. Spencer and D. M.
Spencert As the well-known authority on yeasts, the late Professor
Rose, frequently pointed out, it is impossible for one person to
present, in a single volume, the details of the life, composiotion,
habitats, relationships, and actual and potential uses to man kind
of the 500 (at last count) known species of yeasts. This book
confirms the truth of this statement. However, our aim is actually
more modest than that, and this book is an attempt to introduce the
general reader, and possibly some inter ested specialists, to the
lives of the yeasts in their natural and more artificial habitats,
their use by human beings, and to give some idea of the wonderfully
complex activities within the yeast cell, the characteristics of
the metabolism and molecular biology of yeasts, and the
applications of these characteristics to life in the
present-dayworld ofhuman existence. The book proceeds from a brief
chapter on what is and is not known of the origins and early
history of the yeasts, through a description of their
classification, relationships, habitats and general life style,
their external morphology and internal structures and mechanisms
within their cells, the regulatory mechanisms controlling processes
such as signal transmis sion, mating, cell fusion, and many
others."
