Abstract

“A superb introductory text for medical students ... a strong job of laying out the fundamental mechanisms of bacterial infection and host response. The vast array of prokaryotic and eukaryotic infecting organisms can be baffling to the novice practitioner, and this text serves as a good foundation on which to build more specialized insight. ”

“I highly recommend this text to anyone with an interest in bacteriology, virology, or infectious diseases, whether you’re a student or just someone with an interest in learning more about these subjects.”- online reviews of the Third Edition

This authoritative and classic text—completely revised for its Fourth Edition-is a dynamic, student-friendly introduction to the nature of microorganisms and their role in the maintenance of health or in the causation of disease. Through a unique and stimulating approach, this book helps you understand the significance of etiologic agents, pathogenic processes, epidemiology, and basis of therapy for infectious diseases.
