The atlas with the most color diagnostic microbiology pics.

This atlas beats all the other atlas hands down. I have never seen one atlas contain some many color examples of all the major disease causing microbes and how each one responds to the various diagnostic tests that are performed on them. A must for anyone who is in college for microbiology or clinical lab tech. Each photo has a paragraph next to it detailing which organism it is, along with detailing what the results of the test are and why. No more fumbling thru huge textbooks books looking with the information you need and to only find out that there isn't a photo you can refer to. The only way to learn how to identify microorganisms is by visual learn and when you only have access to the lab one day a week you really must have something at home that you can always refer to.

My most favorite when I have a test!

When I confuse very much in topic of Microbiology laboratory method. I see this book in my faculty's library. I read this. It simply guide me step-by-step to understand the topic. It has clear photograph, complete information, but the price is too expensive.
