By 1960 the scientific community began observing an ever increasing
explosion in the literature embrac ing the many facets of
industrial microbiology. Many of the so-called traditional areas
were being replaced by more modern provocative channels of
endeavor. It was about this time that excellent review-type annual
publications, such as Advances in Applied Microbiology, Progress in
Industrial Microbiology and Developments in Industrial Microbiology
emerged reporting the ex citing new work. It was soon, thereafter,
that the Division of Microbial Chemistry shed its probationary
status to become a bona fide unit of the American Chemi cal
Society. A rash of new applied microbiological v vi FOREWORD
textbooks arrived on the scene. The number of journals reporting
the day-to-day scientific achievements also burgeoned. Early in my
industrial career, I found it impera tive to devise a "workable"
key to the ever increasing volume of literature that was emerging.
This I com piled over the years on voluminous stacks of file cards
which have in essence been reprinted here as "my" Guide to the
Literature for the Industrial Microbiologist. The Guide has,
indeed, served me well and through it, one can readily ascertain
the state of the art of any of the many specialized subjects of
industrial micro biology. Logically, one would first consult recent
textbooks to obtain an overview of the subject being searched."
