Every student package automatically includes a CD-ROM containing the Microbiology Place website, along with an access code for the Microbiology Place website. Students and instructors continue to make Microbiology: An Introduction the No. 1 selling non-majors microbiology text, praising its careful balance of microbiology concepts and applications, proven art that teaches, and its straightforward presentation of complex topics. For the Eighth Edition, this successful formula has been refined with updated research, applications, and links to an enhanced Microbiology Place Website/CD-ROM. Supported by a powerful new Art and Photo CD-ROM for instructors, this new edition provides the most current coverage, technology, and applications for microbiology students.
Microbiology: An Introduction helps you see the connection between human health and microbiology.
This text examines medical microbiology from the viewpoint of the biomedical scientist based in a microbiology laboratory. It explains the basis of key laboratory techniques as applied to medical microbiology - including bacteriology, mycology, and virology - how and why they work, and what they can tell us.
Anemones and fish, ants and acacia trees, fungus and trees, buffaloes and oxpeckers--each of these unlikely duos is an inimitable partnership in which the species' coexistence is mutually beneficial. More specifically, they represent examples of defensive mutualism, when one species receives protection against predators or parasites in exchange for
Containing 57 thoroughly class-tested and easily customizable exercises,Laboratory Experiements in Microbiology: Tenth Edition provides engaging labs with instruction on performing basic microbiology techniques and applications for undergraduate students in diverse areas, including the biological sciences, the allied health sciences, agriculture, environmental science, nutrition, pharmacy, and various pre-professional programs. The Tenth Edition features an updated art program and a full-color design, integrating valuable micrographs throughout each exercise. Additionally, many of the illustrations have been re-rendered in a modern, realistic, three-dimensional style to better visually engage students. Laboratory Reports for each exercise have been enhanced with new Clinical Applications questions, as well as question relating to Hypotheses or Expected Results. Experiments have been refined throughout the manual and the Tenth Edition includes an extensively revised exercise on transformation in bacteria using pGLO to introduce students to this important technique.
Designed for major and non-major students taking an introductory level microbiology lab course. Whether your course caters to pre-health professional students, microbiology majors or pre-med students, everything they need for a thorough introduction to the subject of microbiology is right here.
For pre-nursing and allied health students (including mixed-majors courses). Encourage your students to explore the invisible Robert Bauman's Microbiology with Diseases by Body System, Fourth Edition retains the hallmark art program and clear writing style that have made his books so successful. The Fourth Edition encourages students to visualize the invisible with new QR codes linking to 18 Video Tutors and 6 Disease in Depth features that motivate students to interact with microbiology content and explore microbiology further. The continued focus on real-world clinical situations prepares students for future opportunities in applied practice and healthcare careers. A more robust optional Mastering Microbiology(R) program works with the text to provide an interactive and personalized learning experience that ensures students learn microbiology both in and out of the classroom. Microbiology with Diseases by Body System Plus Mastering Microbiology (optional) provides an enhanced teaching and learning experience for instructors and students.
A great deal of what is known about genetics and inheritance is thanks to what has been learned by studying microbes. Supporting the Next Generation Science Standards on heredity and inheritance of traits as well as the structures and processes of simple and complex organisms, this book introduces all of the various types of microbes found on Earth, and in and on human bodies: bacteria, archaea, and protists. Through engaging language that simplifies complicated science concepts into easily digestible pieces of information and detailed images and diagrams, students will learn about the discovery, evolutionary history, and roles of microbes in health, disease, and the functioning of our planet. Sidebars provide students with additional information to help them gain a deeper understanding of the diversity of life.
