Goljan path has some other angles to integrate into you micro studying, but this covers the bulk of the classic microorganism, case presentations, and treatments. Concise and easily readable.

When my kids were sick, this was one of two books we always read...
My children, now 19 and 17, loved this book. I guess they were about 6 and 4 when I got it. Whenever they were sick, we read this book and a Sesame Street book called "It's No Fun to be Sick." Reading these books became a comforting ritual, as well as an easy way to learn some basic science.

AN INCREDIBLE BOOK
Using leading-edge scientific research author Stephen Buhner reveals the little-known world of bacteria and their amazing ability to develop defenses to pharmaceutical antibiotics. Citing many of the world's leading bacteriologists he shows how bacteria will eventually develop immunity to most antibiotics - that the window of opportunity we have had as a species during the antibiotic era is ...

Great book on preventing Germ Transmission
Simple and to the point. Great book for the very young child on what to do when you sneeze, blow your nose, etc. It isn't a book about "just washing hands", it covers more than washing hands and opens up the opportunity to discuss when and where we find germs. Wonderful illustrations - bright and colorful.

Great introduction to Microbiology
It uses the common language to explain what is a germ. I think it is a great introductory book for young reader on the subject of microbiology. It does have all the latin names and need some help with adults (or dictionary) for proper pronounciation. The only little disappointment I feel about this one is the note for proper pronounciation of those scientific names of microbes and taxonomy (only ...

Bringing to light the most important discovery in 100 years
There is nothing very new or interesting about the rife movement. But that is because of Barry Lynes' book. Before this book, the movement was unknown, obscured, and basically out of reach of public knowledge. However, as a result of this much-needed book, now anyone can read about the Royal Raymond Rife story -- a story which lead to a cure for cancer. In this way, this book does what every good ...

A Field Guide to Bacteria (Comstock Book)

Betsey Dexter Dyer
Cornell University Press
, 2003
Brilliant concept, great execution, fun book
This fun and informative book starts with the brilliant idea of identifying bacteria by their MACROscopic field marks (colors, smells, effects) rather than by microscope. You would never believe how many bacteria one can identify by "field marks" alone, and readers will be surprised at how much fun the identification and discussion of bacteria can be. The author's execution of the guide -- her ...

Fantastic introduction to the subject
This is one of few college textbooks I've used that has actually HELPED me learn the course material. The book takes you from the basics (DNA structure and replication, etc.) all the way through some very complex concepts while never missing a beat. It's surprisingly readable and student-user-friendly whether you're a beginner or a certifiable gene jockey. My only complaint is the quality of ...

An Essential Microbiology Reference
This is an excellent resource for biochemical pathways, relationships, and diagrams of prokaryotic physiology. The written material is particularly lucid, which is greatly appreciated. While the diagrams are simple and in black-and-white print, their reduced complexity lends clarity to the concepts illustrated. I highly recommend this book to anyone in the microbial sciences at the ...

Reliable information on probiotics
Probiotics are products containing bacteria that are beneficial to health. Digestive problems and allergies are increasing in developed countries and much of the source of these difficulties appears to lie with a poor mixture of bacteria in the intestine. Taking probiotics to remedy the imbalance is a popular approach among the general public, but very little reliable information is available. ...

This is an excellent work which diarizes practically every major germ imaginable. The author depicts how physicians dressed in special garb to guard against the bubonic plague throughout the centuries following the 1300s. The work describes various acute respiratory diseases impacting the tonsils and adenoids. Today, there is a lowered risk of Anthrax infestation due to considerable advances in ...

Great Book!
This book is very interesting... and fun! It as funny poems; that make it easy to understand germs. The pictures are AMAZING! I brought the book into school. People were so into it, that it was hard to take it home! Germ Stories was read over, and over, and over again by my classmates! I think the age group should be from 4 years old, to ten. I really recommend it!

Superb thriller

However, how angry becomes apparent when someone kills his former lover eco-terrorist Jenna Kalin; Erin assumes his book was partially the cause so he becomes a hermit wanting nothing to do with the world at lodge. Mark Beamon ...

A life raft in a sea of confusion!
This book got me through Microbiology lab--easy to understand, and thorough. Everything you could want to know about a bacterium or a species is detailed here for you! I'm not selling this one back! Get this if you don't want to be writing reports in the middle of the night, going "oh, shoot, I didn't look up this or that bit of information in my professor's copy!" worth it's weight in gold!
