Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Now in full color, Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews: Microbiology, Second Edition enables rapid review and assimilation of large amounts of complex information about medical microbiology. The book has the hallmark features for which Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews volumes are so popular: an outline format, 450 full-color illustrations, end-of-chapter summaries, review questions, plus an entire section of clinical case studies with full-color illustrations. This edition's medical/clinical focus has been sharpened to provide a high-yield review. Five additional case studies have been included, bringing the total to nineteen. Review questions have been reformatted to comply with USMLE Step 1 style, with clinical vignettes.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Highly Recommended
This is a book that I should have read more. Great illustrations, and better descriptions. Great review of Infectious diseases and the therapy required to deal with them.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Awesome, Awesome, Awesome...
I absolutely love the Lippincott illustrated reviews series and this book continues that great tradition. The book is so well written with the perfect amount of detail. When you read these books you don't feel like your studying. The pictures are amazing and really help solidify the concepts. I highly recommend this book for any health professional.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Lot of Information Given Out Pretty Fast
Notice the word 'Reviews' in the title. This series of books from Lippincott are just that. A review of the subject, in this case Microbiology. This book doesn't spend a lot of time introducing you to the basic concepts of microbiology. The third sentence in the book explains it pretty well: 'In this volume, we primarily consider the role of microorganisms - bacteris, fungi, protozoa, helminths, and viruses - in the initiation and spread of human diseases.'
