Studies on Fermentation: The Diseases of Beer, Their Causes, and the Means of Preventing Them (1879)

""Studies on Fermentation: The Diseases of Beer, Their Causes, and the Means of Preventing Them"" is a seminal work by Louis Pasteur published in 1879. The book is a comprehensive study of the science of fermentation, with a particular focus on the causes and prevention of beer spoilage. Pasteur's research revolutionized the brewing industry, as he identified the role of microorganisms in the fermentation process and developed methods for controlling their growth. The book is divided into several sections, including an introduction to the science of fermentation, a discussion of the causes and prevention of beer spoilage, and an examination of the role of yeast in the brewing process. Throughout the book, Pasteur draws on his extensive research and experimentation to provide a detailed and authoritative account of the science of fermentation. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of science, brewing, or microbiology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
