It offers in-depth knowledge of the relationships between organisms, how they impact patients, and how they are separated and recognized in the microbiology laboratory. Additionally, the book is made to arm doctors with the information necessary to foster conversation with the microbiologist working in their laboratory. The book approaches medical microbiology methodically, detailing the taxonomy of human infections and considering organisms that fall into particular taxonomic categories. The primary clinical illnesses brought on by diverse organisms are covered in the text, and clinical case studies are utilized to illustrate the consequences of various species. Practical Medical Microbiology is a priceless resource for those researching clinical microbiology, infectious illnesses, and virology.
