The book gives a clear and concise view of microbiology. I ordered it for an Intro to Microbio class and am already enjoying it! The quizzes and information is all important and there is no filler, unless your course doesn't cover it. As a science enthusiast, I would read this cover-to-cover as a bedtime book, it really is entertaining.

I work in a microbiology lab in a Regulatory capacity. This book has been wonderful for helping me understand not just what, but why. It's written engagingly and the layout makes it very easy to find what you're looking for. I've recommended it to all my colleagues who need a basic understanding of microbiology.
