Editorial Reviews

Review

About previous editions:
`Practically faultless ... recommended for purchase by all major hospital libraries.'
The Lancet
`Remarkable consistency... well written... a wealth of information... admirably fills the niche for which it was intended.'
Journal of American Medical Association
About the New Edition:
`Overall, this is a fine text, current, and concise, a useful reference that truly complements the more traditional textbooks of microbiology...This volume will find a place on many physicians bookshelves ...I hope that Dr. Bachman, his colleagues...will continue Bacterial Infections in Humans and its companion Viral Infections in Humans for many editions to come.'
Journal of American Medical Association, 281:23 (1999)
`All in all, the third edition of `Bacterial Infections of Humans' is a highly recommendable book and worth its price.'
