Abstract
In this volume of the book, we present background on water and ice formation, the history of the antifreeze proteins (AFPs), their physiological role in freeze avoiding or freeze tolerating species, as well as the evolution and grouping of the antifreeze proteins. In the second volume, we delve into the functions and interactions of antifreeze proteins at the molecular level.
