Learn to identify the microbial agents associated with infectious disease, and understand the basic biochemical and metabolic pathways that serve as the basis for identification, and the microbes that cause disease. A comprehensive overview of microbiology offers confidence by building a solid foundation for further areas of study, including taxonomy, classification, identification, and speciation, and by explaining all major microorganisms and their role as agents in disease. Over 600 illustrations show pathogenic mechanisms, models of antibiotic resistance, life cycles of parasites, and more!What's New: Easy-to-read charts outline theory, procedures and interpretations of tests. Clinical correlation boxes provide quick, easy access to information on signs and symptoms of disease caused by microorganisms. Boxes focus on essential information, highlighting its importance. A new chapter on bacterial physiology provides the most current information. An added second color illustrates key aspects of complicated concepts. Average Rating:

Things like molecular basics in bacteria, viruses, etc are not extensively covered, but the text is clinically oriented. I would recommend this book highly to anyone in the medical/clinical field as well as to clinical pathologists. Rating:  - The philippine version of konemann is not complete .the different slides in the book specially philippine editions are not complete and obsolete and should be further revised.
