Editorial Review:
A brief, clear, thorough, and highly enjoyable approach to clinical microbiology, brimming with mnemonics, humor, summary charts and illustrations, from AIDS to "flesh-eating bacteria" to ebola, mad cow disease, hantavirus, anthrax, smallpox, botulism, etc. Excellent Board review.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Great for Med Students
This book is great for understanding bugs from a clinical perspective. It is concise enough to read easily, and thorough enough for the boards. I don't personally utilize mnemonics, but if you are someone who does, you'll find this book loaded with them, as well pictures and other memory devices.
I use Microcards to complement this text, and find that they work really well together.

Rating: - Good Review!
I used this book in addition to the lectures on micro in medical school. It was a good supplement and uses weird pictures and pneumonics to help you remember a lot of the basics. It helped me tremendously.
Rating: - Well Organized and very helpful

Well, that's a stretch, but it is consice and very well-organized. Concepts are explained well but without too much detail bogging you down. It has a lot of mnemonics, and some of the "rediculous" pictures are helpful. The summary charts (which bugs go with which drugs, etc) are also a great review/study tool. Overall, very ... Read More
