Pasteur here establishes the role of atmospheric oxygen in vinification and links various wine maladies with specific micro-organisms. The research on fermentation and putrefaction led him to the epochal discovery of bacteria, from which he developed the germ-theory of disease.

About Rodger Friedman Rare Book Studio
Rodger Friedman Rare Book Studio owes its name and its inspiration to the traditional Italian studio bibliografico. These small antiquarian bookshops, typically run by individuals who combine deep scholarship with a love of the printed object, remind us that underlying the words "study" and "studio" is the Latin term for zeal and devotion, studium. Since 1993, my goal has been to match discerning collectors with extraordinary books and manuscripts.
