Comprehensive, clinically oriented, and practical, Medical Microbiology, Tenth Edition, remains the go-to text for foundational coverage of key interrelated concepts in medical microbiology, immunology, and infectious diseases. Clear and engaging coverage of the microbial world and its interface with our bodies and the environment provides the foundation to understand these roles in individual and public health and disease—helping you master the essentials of microbiology to effectively prepare you for coursework, exams, and your future career.

Features:
• Focuses on helping the clinician- and scientist-in-training develop a current, complete, and deeper understanding of bacteriology, immunology, virology, mycology, and parasitology, and answer the question: What information do I need to know that will help me understand how to treat an infected patient?
• Contains a new section of eight chapters on Infectious Diseases by Organ System for optimized clinical context
• Includes clinical photographs and cases to correlate basic science with examples of clinical syndromes
• Provides quick reference for efficient study with chapter summaries, key information organized in convenient tables, and review questions
• Offers additional learning resources online, including over 200 self-assessment questions, microscopic images of the microbes, and more
• An eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text and figures, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud
