MIMS' MEDICAL MICROBIOLOGY offers thorough and up-to-date coverage of microbiology and basic immunology, through a clinically relevant, systems-based approach. The textbook emphasises the microbiology of the agents causing disease, and the diseases affecting individual organ systems. Through thorough cross referencing, the reader can easily find what they need, whether seeking information from a systems or a microbe perspective. Nearly 500 illustrations support the text, and summary introductory and summary key facts boxes strengthen the clarity and usefulness of the text.
<ul>
<li>Systems-based approach to microbiology reflects integrated and case-based teaching </li>
<li>Stresses the role of the immune system in infectious disease, in line with the move towards integrated, systems-based teaching (where for example diseases like meningitis are taught as part of a Nervous system module) </li>
<li>Chapter Introduction boxes (now revised to be in bullet points), Summary Headings throughout each chapter and Key Facts boxes at the end of each chapter allow easy access to key concepts, and valuable review tools </li>
<li>Extensively cross-referenced Pathogen Review section means the reader can navigate the text either through a systems-based or a pathogen-based path, as they choose</li>
</ul>
<li>Wide range of questions available on www.studentconsult.com</li>

Medical Microbiology takes a modern and clinically relevant approach to microbiology, discussing the organ systems in turn and addressing the diseases caused by invading microbes within each. The book has four main sections in which the first sections describe infectious diseases in terms of conflict between the host and the parasite. The third section is a full, factual, clinically-based account of infectious diseases with the necessary attention to core medical microbiology, while the fourth section is devoted to prevention and treatment, including a chapter on epidemiology. Integrated case studies reinforce clinical relevance of the material Summary headings throughout each chapter support important concepts Key Facts Review box at the end of each chapter will enable students to better prepare for course exams Review questions encourage students to assess their knowledge Chapter introductions have been re-formatted to give them more prominence Improved appendix design makes information more accessible Spanish version also available, ISBN: 84-8174-396-8
