Format:Paperback
This book is essential reading for anyone studying a course in microbiology or related science subjects. The book has up to date information which is easily understood, with diagrams, pictures and graphs. Prescott uses his knowledge to create a very useful and interesting text book which is well worth the money.

I bought this book whild doing undergraduate microbiology. I prefer Brock's biology of Microorganisms personally. But it is a personal choice. This books is more comprehensive than Brock, and it covers certain topics in more detail than Brock, which you will realise if you are doing 2nd microbiology as well. However, Brock also has topics which are better and all in all, I think the two books compliment each other.

An older edition was ordered from France and despatched to the Netherlands to keep a student happy. The current edition is very expensive so this was an evaluation copy for a few quid. In the end it did the job and became the working copy. No problems.
