Definitive mcirobiology textbook at a majors level. It has set the standard in the field and has the biggest share of the market.
Smaller, very self-contained chapters that allow flexiblity for the instructor. These smaller, self-contained chapters provide the students with complete subject content in each chapter and avoid lots of referring to other chapters. The chapters being smaller, the student also has a sense that the chapters are managable and easier to read.

Seven Main Themes: 1. Development of micriobiology as a science. 2. Nature and importance of the techniques to isolate, culture, 0bserve and identify organisms. 3. Control of microorganisms and the reduction of their detrimental effects. 4. Importance of molecular biology and biochemistry for microbiology. 5. Medical significance of microbiology. 6. Ways in which microorganisms interact with their environments and the practical consequences of these interactions. 7. Influences that microorganisms and microbiological applications have on everyday life.
New, carefully selected, experienced, broadbased author team. Several of them have strong connections to the American Society of Microbiologists and are well known in it's academic circles.
Organizational flexibility of the chapters allows every instructor to sequence chapters and topics to suit their own syllabus.

Organizational flexibility of the chapters allows every instructor to sequence chapters and topics to suit their own syllabus. Each chapter is self-contained as possible to promote flexibility.
Reading comprehension is facilitated by a relatively simple, direct writing style. Information is broken up with numerous section headings, and organized in an outline format within each chapter.
