Microbiology for the Non-Science Major

Microbiology for the Non-Science Major was written with the sole purpose of taking a topic that some find difficult to understand and making it easy and enjoyable. The content of the book is not weighed down with inessential chemistry and biology. It contains information on all types of microbes ranging from the Ebola virus to flesh-eating bacteria. The microbiological concepts are explained in a clear and straight forward manner which makes the study of infectious diseases accessible to all. Topics covered include the transmission of disease, antibiotics, epidemiology and bioterrorism. One of the greatest benefits this book offers is that it is both a textbook and a laboratory manual. This not only lowers costs for the student but also gives the professor a guide for both lecture and laboratory components of a course. This book has already been well received by students majoring in Business, Marketing, Communication Disorders, Psychology, Criminal Justice as well as other non-science majors
