This textbook contains fundamental content covered in most basic and health science microbiology courses. Topics are discussed in a direct, yet interesting way without distracting from the uniquely organized lectures prepared by most individual professors. It is not an encyclopedic textbook that overwhelms students. It is properly illustrated with photos, tables and figures. The book contains a chapter feature, key terms, chapter summary, and questions (general, critical thinking, application and case related), glossary, and index. Chapters include: 1-Introduction, 2-Cell Structure and Classification, 3-Working with Microbes, 4-Prokaryotic Diversity, 5-Eukaryotic Diversity, 6-Subcellular Diversity, 7-Metabolism-Growth-Control, 8-Microbial Genetics, 9-Antimicrobial Drugs, 10-Host-Microbial Relationship, 11-Epidemiology, 12-Immunology, 13-Disease of Skin and Eyes, 14-Disease of Cardiovascular System, (16-18-Other Diseases) and much more, such as 19-Environmental and 20-Applied Microbiology.
