Book Description

9780534556204 978-0534556204 October 24, 2001 1
Batzing's MICROBIOLOGY: AN INTRODUCTION offers a new approach in introductory microbiology, with an emphasis on teaching effectively the important concepts of the course without a strict focus on memorization. Pedagogical material, such as concept maps and flow diagrams, is carefully integrated throughout to enhance understanding and gives students a visual representation of difficult topics. The final portion of the text follows a portal of entry, or route of transmission organization, with material presented around the method by which microbes enter the host's body.

4.0 out of 5 stars microbiology: An Inroduction (with Cogito's CD-Rom and Info Trac), August 9, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Microbiology: An Introduction (with Cogito's CD-ROM and InfoTrac) (Hardcover)
This is a great microbiology book, it would be an A-1 microbiology book if it included what bipolar-staining was also. It includes gram neg. & gram pos. staining, but lacks the other type. Yeah yeah, I know, a book can't include everything. Just saying is all :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, September 5, 2009
This review is from: Microbiology: An Introduction (with Cogito's CD-ROM and InfoTrac) (Hardcover)
This book is well organized and very detailed with lots of examples and visuals to support and bolster the understanding of readers. Very much recommended for people interested in microbiology, as it does not require a great understanding of biology beforehand.
