    Summary: Pollution is one of the most serious issues facing mankind and other life forms on earth. Environmental pollution leads to the degradation of ecosystems, loss of services, economic losses, and various other problems. The eco-friendliest approach to rejuvenating polluted ecosystems is with the help of microorganism-based bioremediation. Microorganisms are characterized by great biodiversity, genetic and metabolic machinery, and by their ability to survive, even in extremely polluted environments. As such, they are and will remain the most important tools for restoring polluted ecosystems / habitats. This three-volume book sheds light on the utilization of microorganisms and the latest technologies for cleaning up polluted sites. It also discusses the remediation or degradation of various important pollutants such as pesticides, wastewater, plastics, PAHs, oil spills etc. The book also explains the latest technologies used for the degradation of pollutants in several niche ecosystems. Given its scope, the book will be of interest to teachers, researchers, bioremediation scientists, capacity builders and policymakers. It also offers valuable additional reading material for undergraduate and graduate students of microbiology, ecology, soil science, and the environmental sciences.

    (1) With certain exceptions, endotracheal anaesthesia is the best method for operations on the head and neck and for any other operation in which there may be a difficulty in controlling the patient's air-way. (2) Expiration should be provided for, in endotracheal anaesthesia, either by means of a second tube or by a tube of calibre sufficient to permit to-and-fro respiration. (3) Cocainization of the upper air-passages has decided advantages in endotracheal anaesthesia. (4) "Blind" intubation through the nose renders the method possible in cases where it is impossible to use a speculum. (5) The insufflation method is not specially indicated in abdominal surgery. (6) The routine use of endotracheal anaesthesia in teaching-hospitals for every class of case is detrimental to the production of sound anaesthetic knowledge in students who are likely to become general practitioners.
