Publisher's Synopsis
"The reemergence of whooping cough, mumps, and measles and the emergence of Zika virus infections and COVID19, spotted fever rickettsioses, Middle East respiratory syndrome, and other diseases; cases of strep throat, MRSA, and tuberculosis; the progress of research into microbial genetics; the challenge of increasingly drug-resistant pathogens; the continual discovery of microorganisms previously unknownthese are just a few examples of why exploring microbiology has never been more exciting, or more important"--.
