Finally, we would like to acknowledge the assistance of the publishers and that faithful army of typists, secretaries, technicians, research students and sympathetic wives and husbands whose painstaking work and attention to detail earns them little recognition but provides the essential basis for a work of this kind.

Our thanks are due to Shell Research Limited, The University of Miami and The Howard Hughes Medical Institute, without whose material assistance in many ways the production of the Series would have been far more difficult, if not impossible. We are also grateful to numerous of our colleagues who, although not themselves contributing to the Series, have provided valuable advice and comment concerning the subject matter. Volume 7 completes the initial Series of “Methods in Microbiology” and this preface affords us a welcome opportunity to express our thanks and appreciation to our many contributors whose ready help, co-operation and patience has done so much to make our task of editing an enjoyable one. The rest of the material comprises topics which are of considerable interest and importance but whose themes are unrelated to one another. Two Chapters concern bacteriophage and one bacteriocins. Thus, Volume 7A contains Chapters dealing with the use of computers in microbiology and a treatment of the mathematical bases of assay methods. As with other Volumes, the material has been divided into two parts a step necessitated primarily by the amount of material presented, but which enabled us to group together related contributions. To a certain extent therefore, Volume 7 is a miscellany of disconnected topics. PREFACE It was inevitable with a Series as large and wide ranging as “Methods in Microbiology” that some topics would fall outside the themes on which the majority of the Volumes were based, and that some contributions intended for inclusion in earlier Volumes would be unavailable at the time they were required.
