<p>This talented author team of a leading microbiology researcher and educator (and former president of the ASM-American Society for Microbiology) and a physician is uniquely qualified to present and teach the complex and rapidly changing field of microbiology. Their experience combines to give the text an authority and clarity rare in microbiology texts. The process-oriented approach and stepwise development of concepts helps you understand why scientists know certain facts, not just that they are known. Ultimately, students understand microbiology, not simply memorize it. This revision includes more motivating Case Studies which increase student relevance, the elimination of jargon to place even greater emphasis on appropriate detail, and a notably clear writing style. Significant updating throughout ensures students have access to the most current research in this dynamic field. The ancillary package is now one of the most complete packages available for this course, with numerous supplements including a study guide, lab manual, and 251 four-color transparencies. An Electronic Companion to Beginning Microbiology CD-ROM from Cogito Learning Media, Inc. comes free with every new student copy of the text. The CD Connections feature in the textbook guides students to the CD so they can interpret, amplify, practice, and review concepts learned in the text through fun and interactive exercises on the CD. Gene Discovery Lab CD-ROM/web site is available for students to explore a molecular biology laboratory.</p>

<p>Would you like to bring guest lectures like researchers, physicians, or fellow instructors into you microbiology course? With this third edition of INTRODUCTION TO MICROBIOLOGY you get the perspective of all of those three professionals. John Ingraham, a professor of microbiology at University of California at Davis, and Catherine Ingraham, his daughter and a practicing physician, utilize their experience within a case history approach complemented by a great technology package. Each chapter in INTRODUCTION TO MICROBIOLOGY now consistently begins with a case history, which John Ingraham has found very motivatonal to students who are new to the study of basic science. Because Catherine Ingraham studied to become a physician by interviewing patients, determining causes and implementing solutions, she knows mastry comes from high interest human stories rather than clinical presentations. Many of the case histories found in this book are taken from Catherine's experience as a physician. This combination of experiences and talent brings a case-based quality to every lecture and homework session. This unique author team also provides up-to-the-minute currency. Coverage of new microbial "events" such as biological warfare, studied by John and its effects prepared for in Catherine's office, keeps students interested. The authors also highlight reemerging diseases, such as tuberculoses and smallpox. As with previous editions, this book takes a "body systems" organization. Students are exposed to the unknown, the world of the microbes, through the known, and the different parts of their own bodies. And, because art is so important, there is again a multimedia manager with this title, but with more exciting capabilities than ever before. Instructors receive powerful PowerPoint slides for all the illustrations, tables and figures from the text, plus several animations are at your fingertips.</p>
