From the Publisher
A more modern treatment of basic chemistry in Chapter 2. There are clearer descriptions of the Major Elements of Life and better explanations of bonds and the chemical basis of the genetic code. New illustrations improve student understanding of the 'Atoms to Cells' focus of this chapter.
Over 1/3 of the art has been either carefully revised or is brand new, giving greater clarity than ever before. The text has always had superb correlation between textual material, artwork, and photos due to Kathleen Talaro's expertise as a scientific illustrator and photographer.
A completely new testbank has been written by coauthor Art Talaro. With approximately 100 questions per chapter, there is a greater variety and more challenging questions available.You can customize this book to meet your exact needs and mix and match with other items on Primis Online allowing you maximum choice and flexibility. You can also choose between two delivery formats: custom printed books (in black and white) or custom eBooks (in color).
Available with a loaded McGraw-Hill multimedia package: Microbes in Motion III, HyperClinic II, Electronic e-Text, and an Online Learning Center.
Excellent learning aids such as bulleted Chapter Overview sections, updated Chapter Capsules, footnoted word origins, pronunciation guides, and boxed essays help students better comprehend difficult material.
Another version of this text is also available. It contains the 17 "principles" chapters found in this text plus another eight "disease" chapters (Talaro takes a taxonomic approach when looking at the diseases) and ends with an environmental and applied microbiology chapter.
