Description
Now in full color, "Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews: Microbiology, Second Edition" enables rapid review and assimilation of large amounts of complex information about medical microbiology. The book has the hallmark features for which "Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews" volumes are so popular: an outline format, 450 full-color illustrations, end-of-chapter summaries, review questions, plus an entire section of clinical case studies with full-color illustrations. This edition's medical/clinical focus has been sharpened to provide a high-yield review. Five additional case studies have been included, bringing the total to nineteen. Review questions have been reformatted to comply with USMLE Step 1 style, with clinical vignettes.
