They are still the most frequent cause of death in Third World countries. New and incurable infectious diseases are a worldwide problem. It is inescapable, therefore, that modern medicine must redouble its efforts to understand the relationship between microorganisms and humans and continue to lead the search for new therapies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe following five subject areas are covered: Immunology, Bacteriology, Mycology, Virology, Parasitology. This book provides a clearly focused and richly detailed review of the entire field of medical microbiology. It is both a textbook for students of medicine and dentistry and a useful companion for medical technicians and laboratory assistants, both at school and in the laboratory. It will also serve as a handy work of reference for clinical practitioners. The book is structured with teachability in mind: The many color illustrations and microscopic images render complex themes readily accessible. Summaries at the beginning of every chapter, a color-coded reference guide and detailed diagnostic tables make this an excellent sourcebook for rapid learning and quick reference. A list of important internet addresses in the appendix will help the book's users keep abreast of cutting-edge research.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eI Basic Principles of Medical Microbiology and Immunology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1 General Aspects of Medical Microbiology\u003cbr\u003e 2 Basic Principles of Immunology\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eII Bacteriology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 3 General Bacteriology\u003cbr\u003e 4 Bacteria as Human Pathogens\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eIII Mycology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 5 General Mycology\u003cbr\u003e 6 Fungi as Human Pathogens\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eIV Virology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 7 General Virology\u003cbr\u003e 8 Viruses as Human Pathogens\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eV Parasitology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 9 Protozoa\u003cbr\u003e 10 Helminths\u003cbr\u003e 11 Arthropods\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eVI Organ System Infections\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 12 Etiological and Laboratory Diagnostic Summaries in Tabular Form\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thieme Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52151406625111,"sku":"9783131319913","price":38.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783131319913.jpg?v=1762961095","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/medical-microbiology-9783131319913","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
