This is the landmark clinical guide to the role microorganisms play in human health and illnesses - extensively revised and updated. Linking fundamental microbiology concepts with the diagnosis and treatment of clinical infections, this one-of-a-kind, portable text delivers an essential overview of the organisms and agents involved in clinical microbiology. In addition to brief descriptions of the organisms, you'll find vital perspectives on pathogenesis, diagnostic laboratory tests, clinical findings, treatment, and epidemiology.Preface 1 The science of microbiology 2 Cell structure 3 Classification of bacteria 4 The growth, survival, & death of microorganisms 5 Cultivation of microorganisms 6 Microbial metabolism 7 Microbial genetics 8 Immunology 9 Pathogenesis of bacterial infection 10 Antimicrobial chemotherapy 11 Normal microbial flora of the human body 12 Spore-forming gram-positive bacilli : bacillus & clostridium species 13 Non-spore-forming gram-positive bacilli : corynebacterium, propionibacterium, listeria, erysipelothrix, actinomycetes, & related pathogens 14 The staphylococci 15 The streptococci 16 Enteric gram-negative rods (enterobacteriaceae) 17 Pseudomonads, acinetobacters, & uncommon gram-negative bacteria 18 Vibrios, campylobacters, helicobacter, & associated bacteria 19 Haemophilus, bordetella, brucella, & francisella 20 Yersinia & pasteurella 21 The neisseriae 22 Infections caused by anaerobic bacteria 23 Legionellae, bartonella, & unusual bacterial pathogens 24 Mycobacteria 25 Spirochetes & other spiral microorganisms 26 Mycoplasmas & cell wall-defective bacteria 27 Rickettsia & ehrlichia 28 Chlamydiae 29 General properties of viruses 30 Pathogenesis & control of viral diseases 31 Parvoviruses 32 Adenoviruses 33 Herpesviruses 34 Poxviruses 35 Hepatitis viruses 36 Picornaviruses (enterovirus & rhinovirus groups) 37 Reoviruses, rotaviruses, & caliciviruses 38 Arthropod-borne & rodent-borne viral diseases 39 Orthomyxoviruses (influenza viruses) 40 Paramyxoviruses & rubella virus 41 Coronaviruses 42 Rabies, slow virus infections, & prion diseases 43 Human cancer viruses 44 AIDS & lentiviruses 45 Medical mycology 46 Medical parasitology 47 Principles of diagnostic medical microbiology 48 Cases & clinical correlations Index
