Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews: Microbiology

Rating:
Summary: Good mirco review for microbiology class
Review: I used this book for my medical microbiology class as a study tool and found it quite useful. It highlights all you need to know for fungi, bacteria, viruses and parasites. I also referenced the following:
Tortora's Microbiology Text
and
Patrick Leonardi's Microbiology Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers
Tortora's book was really easy to understand and Leonardi's study guide was vital for my complete test preparation. These three books were of great help.

Summary: Great reference text
Review: I used this book through 2 years of medical school and found it to be quite helpful. It doesn't go into a bunch on needless details, but give you what you need to know. The book is well-organized and has some excellent color photos as well. There is a quick reference section in the back which is helpful for boards when you need a quick review. It gives you the bug, the tests you would do, the path, and the drug to treat.
