Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good but out of date
This book has great information on antimicrobial drugs. It is what is allowing me to pass (I hope) my chemotherapeutics class. While the information is presented well it was published in 2000 and drug resistance has changed in 8 years, and new drugs have been released. I hope Scholar/Pratt release a third edition. Overall an oldie but a goodie.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A book worthing reading
This book is helpful for those who are interested in infectious diseases. Althoug newer drugs do not be included in this book and there are some limitations of information of some antibiotics, this book still has its role in teaching medical students and residents who want to be infection specialists. Comprehensive review of all antibiotics is impossible as you chosen this book. In general, I give four stars to this book.
