Book Description

August 28, 2006 1405126655 978-1405126656 3
Infection: Microbiology and Management provides a core resource for the understanding of medical microbiology and infectious diseases. Content covers microbiological and clinical diagnosis, through to clinical management, epidemiology and the control of infectious conditions as they occur both in the hospital and community setting.

With a concise, systems-based approach, the third edition has been revised and restructured and now covers wider epidemiological and public concerns. Key feature boxes, self assessment and case studies assist learning in each chapter.

Designed to be used either as a basic learning text, or as a practical textbook in the clinical setting, Infection: Microbiology and Management, previously titled Infectious Disease, will continue to appeal to students at all stages of their career, candidates for higher examinations, the general physician and surgeon, epidemiologists and experts in public health.


Editorial Reviews

Review

"This book explains the nature, diagnosis and management of infection in a more comprehensive manner than standard clinical textbooks. It makes good links between pathology and clinical features...if you are thinking about buying a microbiology textbook, this is one of the better ones. It doesn't skimp on detail but still keeps your attention. Considering the amount of microbiology in exams, I would recommend a thorough one, like this." Northwing, Sheffield Medical Student's Magazine
