Description of Microbiology and Immunology
The book Microbiology and Immunology is Content 12 chapters starting with basic information and bringing the student quickly to the level of detail and comprehension needed for Step 1. There is both a ‘‘bug’’ approach followed by an organ-systems approach. They include critical signs/ symptoms, epidemiology, etiology, the pathogenesis of infections and immune diseases along with the mechanisms of preventing infection and means of identifying and diagnosing the causative agent.
