A Case-History Approach

At the core of Microbiology: The Human Experience are case histories that put foundational concepts in a real-world context.The bones are the consistent structure of learning objectives, summaries, and questions that support the clear, accurate, and organized presentation of the content.The connective tissue is the art and highly readable text, by two masterful teachers and an experienced physician assistant, which puts infectious disease front and center and highlights contemporary topics such as the human microbiome.
