Microbiology: An Evolving Science and Microbiology:The Laboratory Experience

The most contemporary microbiology textbook is also the most accessible.Extensive new research examples are used to integrate foundational topics with cutting-edge coverage of microbial evolution, genomics, molecular genetics, and biotechnology. Microbiology: An Evolving Science is now more student-friendly, with an authoritative and readable text, a comprehensively updated art program, and an innovative media package.Written by a microbiologist with over two decades of collective experience both teaching and coordinating lab courses, Microbiology: The Laboratory Experience teaches the science behind the labs. It explains, with a uniquely-engaging authorial voice, the reasons behind the methods. Each lab has a thorough introduction that emphasizes the relevant concepts and applications, and is accompanied by an unparalleled visual program. Microbiology: The Laboratory Experience can be used independently or in tandem with either of Norton’s microbiology textbooks―Microbiology: The Human Experience and Microbiology: An Evolving Science―at an unmatched value.
