Wonderful Learning Resource! March 17, 2009

This book is about as good as it gets for basic study materials. Even if you don't want to spend time meticulously coloring it, the book gives an excellent overview of basic microbiology. If you are visual learner---this book is a MUST. The book comes complete with a helpful coloring guide and each section includes text explaining the illustrations. The text is clearly written and the authors are extremely well qualified, hailing from the UCSF medical illustration program. UCSF may very well be one of the top medical education programs in the world. (and this level of quality shows in the book!)

I'm new to Microbiolgy and didn't know where or how to start studying. My textbook was just too huge. I felt a little silly ordering a coloring book but it has become a great way for me to flesh out key concepts and become familiar with the vocabulary.
Each drawing comes with a detailed and easy to read description on the opposing page. Something about reading a paragraph and then coloring in the applicable section makes the information easy to understand.
It's also a great way to get a little quick studying done. Each picture can be colored and reviewed in about 15 minutes (although I take a little longer just to really absorb the material).
Thanks for the great book! I've already ordered the Physiology and Anatomy coloring books to use next semester.

I am currently in Microbiology and this book is very helpful with its layout. I am a visual learner and this book has exceeded my expectations so far. The only complaint/comment I have is that the pictures are very small and compact therefore making it hard to color with anything other than colored pencils. I would have liked crayon as they have better colors but beggers can't be choosers. Great book overall!!!
