Editorial Reviews
Review
In recommending this book, suffice it to say that the contributions, without exception, are well referenced; the production by CRC Press is of high quality with clear print, excellent figures and a good index. I recommend that ….it be on the shelves of all polar libraries and biologists working on low temperature systems from cells to ecosystems.

Book Description
Cryobiology is the study of living things at low temperatures. For more than 50 years, science has explored whether cold may preserve life. Today, cryobiology plays an important role in medicine, agriculture, horticulture, and forestry, as well as in the conservation of endangered plant, animal and microbial species. Life in the Frozen State is a comprehensive review of the effects of freezing on living organisms, and how the use of cryobiology can benefit humanity in healthcare and conservation. The book takes a multidisciplinary approach, combining theory and practice across a range of species and applications.
