Summary: Don't BUY
Comment: This book is useless, it doesn't even come bound, it's just a bunch of sheets w/ holes in them so you can place this in a binder. The book isn't great because it is far from an atlas. It is more like a lab manual, explaining a little about the different lab tests. It basically has only one picture(in color)for different examples of each bacterium. Seeing as how it's an atlas, I assumed it to have lots of different pictures of each bacterium. Furthermore, it occupies alot of space with useless low yield info such as chemical structures. If you're buying this book for pictures of bacterium and virus, don't, because you can find comparable pictures on the internet. Also, not sure about this, but it doesn't seem that the authors are PhD's or MD's. They don't list a designation after their name, which may not matter to you, but I've found that most of the useful books are written by PhD's/MD's. SUmmary: Low Yield Book; Should not include atlas in the title because it is far from one..

Summary: Great Book for Undergrad Students
Comment: I am an undergrad nursing student, and I can attest that this book is a great companion to microbiology lab activities. You can look up the microorganism you are viewing under the scope and compare what you see to the image the book displays. This is very helpful in this respect. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 only because I do not care for the way it is organized. Overall, however, I would highly recommend this atlas to any microbiology student.

Summary: great atlas, great for learning
Comment: I would recommend this atlas for anyone taking an undergraduate microbiology class. The pictures are easy to understand and really gives you a great visual for making learning more interesting. I used this book in lab and got an A for my lab grade. I also used the following book, which is also sold on amazon:
Microbiology Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers
by Patrick Leonardi ISBN: 0971999635
The second book helped my study group and I prepare better for the type of guestions that appeared on the test. In fact, everyone in my study group got a 90 average or better by the help of these two books. If you want good grades, get both books. If you just want to pass, get both books.
