Preface Since the first two editions in this series were published, much has changed in the world of antibiotic resistance research. Importantly, national and international reports have highlighted the cost of antibiotics resistance to world health. There is a recognition of the need to understand the processes that drive resistance and to identify ways to ameliorate the apparently inexorable progress to a post-antibiotic age. At the same time, our science has not stood still and there are new tools to address the old questions. This new edition of Antibiotic Resistance Protocols draws on a wide range of different technologies. These range from conventional growth-based techniques to the application of molecular biology to understand the development of resistance mutations, diagnosis, and monitoring tr
