Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Good for what it is
This is a very good medical micro book for someone who needs a reasonable complete and accessible reference. It's not a definitive micro book. It's not "Clinical Microbiology made ridiculously simple" either. I find micro really painful as a general rule. I'd never sit down and read this book from cover to cover. That said when I need to know about a particular bug this book generally tells me everything I'd want to know in an organized and understandable fashion.
Rating:  - Excellent for medical students, residents, and non-infectious disease specialists who wants to review the basics of this subjec

Now I am a practicing family physician who wants to review the basics of microbiology and immunology AND learns new things in the basic science of these (since there have been many new discoveries of the last ten years).

Rating: - A very good review for USMLE
I liked this book very much. It is a very good review of Microbiology and Immunology for USMLE.
The main section covers major bacteriology, virology and parasitology. At the end of each chapter, there is a brief section with 'PEARLS', most important information in the chapter in brief. Then there is a 40-page section with brief summaries of medically important organisms. There is a concise Immunology section. It is followed by clinical cases and USMLE type exam questions.
