Description

This text supplies the bare necessities of knowledge for clinical practice. The focus of the book is to provide students with the information they need in an easy-to-use, memorable format. The authors maintain the student focus and visual appeal of the last edition, but have added more features whilst paring down content for an even finer approach. The format of the text is a logical building-block approach to microbiology. This progressive approach from basic principles and concepts to systematic identification of etiologic agents of infectious diseases allows for greater understanding and development of problem solving skills.
