Summary: Inaccurate descriotion of paperback
Comment: I was surprised to open my parcel to find the study guide instead of the textbook. There is NOTHING in the description that explains as so. Very dissapointed as I need the text for an exam.

Rating: 5
Summary: Very Good book
Comment: I always thought Mr. Tortora was a great writer. He knows how to convey highly advanced medical information in a easy to comprehend matter. This book is not any different. I highly recommend also the following which is on amazon:
Microbiology Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers by Patrick Leonardi
This second book helped me with the type of questions to prepare for on my medical microbiology exams. The first book is needed to get the knowledge. The second book is needed to know what is going to be asked on the test.

Rating: 3
Summary: GOOD INTRO, BUT CERTAINLY NOT THE BEST
Comment: The beauty of this book lies in its choice of simple terms, when analyzing complex issues. A good introductory effort! Also, the tutorials of its accompanying CDs would enhance revisions.
Most readers will appreciate the way this book handled all those discussions partaining to microbial taxonomy, bacterial growth, and viral replication. Unlike many introductory microbiology texts, this one presented comprehensive information on the nature of prions.
But, even with the embellishments that included two CD-ROMs and web access, the retail price of this book is far from reasonable. This textbook delivered decent output on medical aspects of microbiology. However, it ran average info on industrial applications of microbiology; and performed poorly on environmental aspect. It remains a good book, but given its relatively high price and unbalanced coverage, I would not rate it as my first choice. There are many better texts in the market.
