unbelievable
This book contains all the Knowledge needed for a medical microbiology student at university. crammed full of every fact that is required to study around the subject.

'as simple as possible, but no simpler' - einstein
Unlike other microbio txtbooks, this one doesn't just list genus after genus. It equips you with an approach to the question, 'this colony growing right here, what do I do to find out what it is?' - which is systematic, comprehensive, appropriately reinforcing (the tables are 2colour coded, v helpfully), informally written (simply put), and there's even a whole section on 'how to perform diagnostic tests' with colour photos of the possible results. Don't just take my word for it, try reading it yourself.
