Microbiology is an extremely diverse discipline & can be a bewildering field to the neophyte. The traditional books seem to be exhaustive of microbiologic facts. This edition is the carefully nurtured descendant of that book and retains the useful format for the edition of the text, enhanced by full-colour illustrations and photographic reproductions. the goal is to provide a comprehensive summary of the specialty of microbiology. All chapters were thoroughly revised to provide timely information and references. The illustrations and photographs were updated and made more accessible and informative. The publication of this book marks 3 years of my tenure at a tertiary care hospital in Ambala. The local community outside of the university shares this commitment to improving the health and welfare of healthcare workers, and I am gratified by their efforts to make a difference in the kind of care that is available to women and their families. I look forward to the specialty's continued positive impact of on the health of healthcare workers throughout the world. It is my fervent hope that my work will benefit all healthcare workers and reduce the numbers of those who are afflicted with diseases. To that end, this book is offered as a resource to assist and encourage all who study the specialty of microbiology.
