| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc | This book is divided into six sections: microbial biology, infection immunity, bacterial pathogens and associated diseases, viral pathogens and associate diseases, fungal pathogens and parasitic infections, diagnosis, treatment and control of infection. The major portion provides organism-based systematic coverage of microbiology. Each organism is considered under a standard set of headings: Description, Pathogenesis, Clinical features, Laboratory diagnosis, Treatment and Epidemiology. The section on immunology covers that part of the subject that is of direct relevance to the understanding of microbial infection.<br/>An organism-based account of the subject, but presented in the clinical context ideal for medical students<br/>Information presented in a very systematic way making learning easy<br/>Key point boxes introduced to help students with examination preparation<br/>Contains a reasonable degree of detail making it ideal for students with a level of commitment to microbiology<br/>Major updates to chapters on viral diseases, antimicrobial chemotherapy and vaccines<br/>New chapter on Medical entomology<br/>Further reading now includes resources on the internet<br/>Key point boxes introduced<br/>Increase in clinical content |
