"This manual should be in all clinical microbiology laboratories and in many university, hospital, or clinic libraries used by infectious disease clinicians. Although not all chapters will be referred to with equal frequency, the collection covers all aspects of the rapidly expanding fields within the international discipline of clinical microbiology. Its availability should improve and standardize the diagnosis of microbial diseases." - Donald Giger, MSc, PhD (Creighton University School of Medicine)
