Clinical Microbiology Made Ridiculously Simple (Medmaster)
Date undefinedAs a current second year medical student, I find it very difficult to keep up with all the seemingly random endotoxins, exotoxins, cell wall components, diseases etc. associated with all the microbes that we as medical students are expected to know. However, this book does a excellent job of breaking down all of these components for all clinically relevant microbes into very simple explanations. Chapters are filled with funny pictures that help to incorporate many little details into an image that will not soon be forgotten. This feature along with much repetition throughout chapters almost ensures you will learn the material fully and quickly with very little effort. And if you have not learned the material by reading the chapter and looking at the pics, this book also provides fantastic charts that breakdown almost all of the information presented for a rapid review of the facts.
For anyone who has trouble remembering all of the "little details" associated with bugs, I definitely recommend this book..

Date undefinedThis book does an amazing job of putting a face to all the bugs. I didnt get a ton of micro in my first year of medical school, but this book brought me up to speed quickly during my second year. I will definitely rely on the concise summaries in this book when studying for the USMLE boards!

Date undefinedCovers all of the "bugs" thoroughly with a clinical focus. At the end of each chapter there are review tables w/ info on the bug, how it presents clinically, and how you treat it. Has lots of pneumonics and different ways to remember the info. The book is in black and white except the cover.
