Impressive amount of information, with well thought out image selection. Definitely an excellent reference book in the field of medical microbiology. There are however many typographic errors in the book, which makes you wonder about QC checking before publication.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must have. The ground up kind of intel.
Format: HardcoverVerified PurchaseInformative. With basic medical knowledge, a humbling read. Knowledge is power. Micro biology is a critical study that is far from understood in its entirety.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ottimo
Format: HardcoverVerified PurchaseIl libro è arrivato il giorno seguente all'acquisto, integro e perfettamente imballato. Completo ed estremamente dettagliato nei contenuti. Unica pecca: le dimensioni ( e quindi il peso) del volume. Fosse stato diviso in due tomi avrei messo 5 stelle. Ottimo!
