Prescott's Principles of Microbiology provides a balanced,
comprehensive introduction to all major areas of microbiology. Because
of this balance, Prescott's Principles of Microbiology is appropriate
for microbiology majors and mixed majors courses. The authors have
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.
