  Okay November 19, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was told this book was in used good condition and when I recieved it the book was held to gether with zip ties!!! Decent book though, not nearly as informative as I would have hoped.
  Good as far as it goes June 23, 2008 This was a required text for my micro class. It was sometimes a little helpful, but it mostly didn't have the answers to my questions. It covers too much in too few pages. The only time that I really found it to be helpful was in reading test results. When I wasn't sure if, for example, my VP broth had really changed color enough to be a positive result, the large glossy pictures were nice. However, when I was trying to figure out colonial morphology, only about half the terms that we were supposed to know were covered in the book. Not so helpful. So, as I stated earlier, this book is helpful when it covers the information that you need, but I was never sure if what I was looking for would be covered in the book.

  Images are great references. February 15, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The images are great for referencing the different cells charachteristics under a microscope. Convenient when you are studying somewhere besides lab.
  Useless January 21, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought this as a first year medical student in hopes that it would simplify and better illustrate the complicated world of microbiology. In the end, it was a totally useless book. The pictures are average but really low yeild. If you are a med student trying to find pictures, I strongly reccomend you look elsewhere. If you are an undergrad and have tons of time on your hands, get it and waste a nice weekend or two. Otherwise stick to the assigned books. If you are a proffesor who has chosen this as an assigned book, shame on you!!!
