Reviews book: This is written in two parts. The first part, virology and mycology, is related to virus and fungi. The first part has four chapters of which the first two chapters are dedicated to virus and the later two chapters are regarding fungi. The topics are covered in general which covers the structure, nutrition, reproduction, cultivation of these microbes The second part, environmental microbiology, covers the fundamental aspects of microbiology related to air, soil, water and waste water. The language has been kept simple so that the students of undergraduate or the beginners of microbiology can be able to understand.
Reviews book: The textbook was compiled in accordance with officially approved teaching programs for microbiology, virology and immunology in all faculties of higher medical schools. Questions of general microbiology (basic methods of studying microorganisms, morphology, structure and classification of bacteria, their physiology, the influence of physical, chemical and biological factors on microorganisms, microbial genetics and biotechnology, antimicrobials and the concept of infection) and special microbiology (morphology, physiology, pathogenic properties of pathogens of many infectious diseases, modern methods of their diagnostics, specific prevention and therapy). The textbook also contains sections on virology, protozoology, mycology and helminthology, which examine the basic biological properties of the causative agents and the diseases they cause. A significant part of the textbook is devoted to questions of immunology (nonspecific resistance of the organism, the doctrine of antigens, the immune system of the body, immune response, immunity reactions, allergy and other types of immune responses, immunodiagnostics and immunocorrection, immunoprophylaxis and immunotherapy). The textbook contains sections on clinical and sanitary microbiology, examines the ecology of microorganisms, the normal microbiota of the human body and the effect of microorganisms on the fetus. Separate sections are devoted to the microbiota of the oral cavity and microbiological research in stomatological and pharmaceutical fields. The textbook is intended for students of medical universities, relevant departments of higher education of doctors, interns and microbiologists of all specialties.

Reviews book: Essential Microbiology 2nd Edition is a fully revisedcomprehensive introductory text aimed at students taking a firstcourse in the subject. It provides an ideal entry into theworld of microorganisms, considering all aspects of their biology(structure, metabolism, genetics), and illustrates the remarkablediversity of microbial life by devoting a chapter to each of themain taxonomic groupings. The second part of the book introducesthe reader to aspects of applied microbiology, exploring theinvolvement of microorganisms in areas as diverse as food and drinkproduction, genetic engineering, global recycling systems andinfectious disease. Essential Microbiology explains the key points of each topic butavoids overburdening the student with unnecessary detail. Now infull colour it makes extensive use of clear line diagrams toclarify sometimes difficult concepts or mechanisms. A companion website includes further material including MCQs, enabling the studentto assess their understanding of the main concepts that have beencovered.
