    Prescott's Principles of Microbiology

    Textbook - Prescott's Principles of Microbiology ISBN: 0077213416
    Binding: Hardcover
    Edition: 1
    Author(s): Joanne Willey, Linda Sherwood, Chris Woolverton
    Publisher: McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math
    Number of Pages: 960

    Prescotts Principles of Microbiology continues in the tradition of the market leading Prescott Harley and Kleins Microbiology In using the 7th edition of PHKs Microbiology as the foundation for the development of Principles the authors have presented a streamlined briefer discussion of the broad discipline of microbiology and have focused on readability and the integration of several key themes with an emphasis on evolution ecology and diversity throughout the text To accomplish this each chapter focuses on key concepts and includes only the most relevant up-to-date examples Unique to Principles is the inclusion of microbial pathogens into the diversity chapters (chapters 19-24) Thus when students read about the metabolic and genetic diversity of each bacterial protist and viral taxon they are also presented with the important pathogens In this way the physiological adaptations that make a given organism successful can be immediately related to its role as a pathogen and pathogens can be readily compared to phylogenetically similar microbes
