Encourage your students to explore the invisible
Robert Bauman's Microbiology with Diseases by Body System, Fourth Edition retains the hallmark art program and clear writing style that have made his books so successful. The Fourth Edition encourages students to visualize the invisible with new QR codes linking to 18 Video Tutors and 6 Disease in Depth features that motivate students to interact with microbiology content and explore microbiology further. The continued focus on real-world clinical situations prepares students for future opportunities in applied practice and healthcare careers. A more robust optional MasteringMicrobiology (R)program works with the text to provide an interactive and personalized learning experience that ensures students learn microbiology both in and out of the classroom.
Microbiology with Diseases by Body System Plus MasteringMicrobiology (optional) provides an enhanced teaching and learning experience for instructors and students. This program provides the ability to:
Personalize learning with MasteringMicrobiology: MasteringMicrobiology coaches students through the toughest microbiology topics. Engaging tools help students visualize, practice, and understand crucial content.
Think outside the classroom: QR codes in the textbook enable students to use their smartphone or tablet to instantly interact with Dr. Bauman in step-by-step tutorials and explore important developments in microbiology news and research.
Focus on critical thinking: Case studies and engaging activities improve students' ability to solve problems by keeping them interested.
Teach tough topics with superior art: Outstanding art integration through video tutorials, illustrations, and micrographs enables students to absorb and retain difficult microbiology concepts.
