About this title

Synopsis

Designed for pre-nursing and allied health students (and also mixed-majors courses), Microbiology with Diseases by Body System, Second Edition retains the hallmark art program and clear writing style that have made Robert Bauman’s book a success. Filled with intriguing content based on cutting-edge research that engages students, the Second Edition features increased clinical coverage as well as a strong focus on the beneficial effects of microbes. Media Manager 2.1 provides instructors with the most robust media program available in the microbiology market for dynamic classroom presentations. In addition to all of the art, photos, and tables from the book in JPEG and PowerPoint® format and customizable PowerPointlecture outlines, Media Manager 2.1 also includes 115 brief Microbiology Animations that depict complex microbial processes. These animations also appear on The Microbiology Place Website, with gradable quizzes, for students.

About the Author

Robert Bauman is a professor of biology and chairman of the Department of Biological Sciences at Amarillo College in Amarillo, Texas. He teaches microbiology and human anatomy and physiology. He received an M.A. degree in botany from the University of Texas at Austin, and a Ph.D. in biology from Stanford University.

His research interests have included the morphology and ecology of freshwater algae, the cell biology of marine algae (particularly the deposition of cell walls and intercellular communication), and environmentally triggered chromogenesis in butterflies. He is a member of the American Society of Microbiology (ASM), Texas Community College Teacher's Association (TCCTA), American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), and The Lepidopterist's Society. When he is not writing books, he enjoys spending time with his family: gardening, hiking, camping, playing games (with lots of laughter), and reading classics out loud by a crackling fire.
