Opis: Medical Microbiology - Ken Rosenthal, Patrick Murray, Michael Pfaller

Quickly learn the microbiology fundamentals you need to know with "Medical Microbiology, 7th Edition", by Dr. Patrick R. Murray, Dr. Ken S. Rosenthal, and Dr. Michael A. Pfaller. Newly reorganized to correspond with integrated curricula and changing study habits, this practical and manageable text is clearly written and easy to use, presenting clinically relevant information about microbes and their diseases in a succinct and engaging manner. "As someone who has used this book in the past, I know it is excellent for teaching medical students. It also is reasonably priced for students who are dealing with the high cost of medical education. The most valuable features are the excellent pictures and figures that enhance the understanding of complex issues. Each chapter is followed by a few thought-provoking questions that can be used during teaching to encourage deeper understanding of the material. Although written for medical students in the first years of training, the book also is very useful for students in advanced training such as residency or fellowships." - "Rebecca T. Horvat, PhD, D(ABMM)(University of Kansas Medical Center), from Doody's Reviews"Section 1: Introduction 1. Overview of Medical Microbiology 2. Commensal and Pathogenic Microbial Flora in Humans 3.
