An efficient review of all areas pertinent to a microbiology course, it simplifies the learning process and provides visually appealing figures that can be used for future study. The act of coloring helps students understand the structure and processes of microbiology, and how they relate to one another.

Being an American publication, some of the spelling is quite different to UK English, but for me, this did not present any problem. In order to get the best out of this book, it is vital that the guidelines and colouring instructions are thoroughly followed as some of the content is very detailed.
The authors have researched this learning method well, and clearly aim it at A-level students and above. However, even for the seasoned biologist it would come across as an interesting presentation.
Without any hesitation, I would highly recommend The Microbiology Coloring Book to all students of Biological and related subjects. Definately a 'must have'
