Archaea: Salt-lovers, Methane-makers, Thermophiles, and Other Archaeans

David M. Barker (author)

Publisher: Crabtree Publishing Company ISBN: 9780778791775

Some Archaea thrive in extreme places such as in thermal pools, hot vents at the bottom of the sea, extremely salty water, and even in underground oil reserves. This book examines the diverse Archaea kingdom and the division of these organisms by their unusual biology into three main groups. It also explains why little in general is known about them, and why further classification of Archaea is so difficult.
