Summary: Good Delivery
Comment: I received this text book in a very timely manner, in the wrapper, and paid a very fair price. The text is easy to read and had a very good primer on the biochem that is the basis for Microbiology. I would give a good rating to this seller.

Summary: Excellent office text
Comment: I purchased this text to help review for the FNP examination. It is an excellent resource--one that I frequently pull off the shelf to review. I would strongly recommend it for your medical library.

Summary: I miss it
Comment: This was the required text for the microbiology class I took. I found this book to be very informative and helpful. The class was an introduction to microiology and this book was perfect for it! And I'm sure that, had this book been that bad, the instructor would never have selevte it for the course. My only regret is that I sold it back to the campus bookstore at the end of the semester; I wish I still had this to go back to and look up the information.
