Prescott's microbiology
Joanne M. Willey (Author), Kathleen M. Sandman (Author), Dorothy H. Wood (Author)
The author team of Prescott's Microbiology continues the tradition of past editions by providing a balanced, comprehensive introduction to all major areas of microbiology. This balance makes Microbiology appropriate for microbiology majors and mixed majors courses. The authors have introduced a number of pedagogical elements designed to facilitate student learning. They also remain focused on readability, artwork, and the integration of several key themes (including evolution, ecology and diversity) throughout the text, making an already superior text even better. Molecular Microbiology and Immunology The eleventh edition includes updates on genetics, biotechnology, genomics and metagenomics, immunology, and the human microbiome. A streamlined discussion of immunity, with enhanced detail between innate and adaptive linkages, helps students grasp the complexity and specificity of immune responses. A new chapter, The Microbe-Host Ecosystem, introduces students to the development and impact of the human microbiome
