Medical Microbiology and Infection
This core text that gives you all the information you need to know and has a very manageable structure that will guide you effortlessly along. Just when infectious diseases seemed like lots of lists, this book will help you make sense of all that material by explaining it systematically. All the detail will fall into place as you understand the main points. The pictures of the different pathologies make an excellent accompaniment to the written explanations. There are also useful chapters focussed on specific body systems that put all the information into context.
