5.0 out of 5 stars The best of the High Yield Series, November 16, 2006
By 
IntCards (Tulsa, OK United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
What it does right: This is the only book in the HY series the give sufficient detail to clinical cases and treatments. If you know this book, you know micro sufficient for USMLE. Goljan path has some other angles to integrate into you micro studying, but this covers the bulk of the classic microorganism, case presentations, and treatments. Concise and easily readable. The section of Q/A is priceless and sorely lacking in most of the HY titles.

What is does wrong: The book does not flow as well as I would like, but I don't like micro, so that might be part of it lol. Really, I do not have any critical complaints.

Conclusion: Great review for micro. Very good book to acclimate yourself with material before utilizing first aid. You might even find yourself using this book as a reference for more detail in areas that are not clear to you from FA.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best for reviewing, July 25, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Before buying this book I had four others on microbiology. The most difficult thing was to decide which approach was better to learn this science - bug parade or according to site of infection?

Well, High-Yield Microbiology removes this problem - it analyzes bugs in both ways and plus another "Comparative Microbiology", in which it compares microbes according to several characteristics. The repetition alone improves learning.

This book is clear and well written, with helpful tables and charts. It is the best to review microbiology. Note REVIEW, you will have to have a textbook and/or go to classes if you actually want to learn.

Thus, in what it aims to be, it is the best.
