by Satish Gupte

This book, The Short Textbook of Medical Microbiology (Including Parasitology), deals with medical microbiology. In India as also in other countries of the Third World, despite advances in the field of microbiology, there has been an acute dearth of well-written textbooks on the subject for the undergraduate medical students. This book attempts to fill that long-left gap. The stress has been on contemporary medical microbiology’s relevance for today’s needs in our set-up. A large number of line diagrams and tables are included to simplify the points. Also, the language has been simple, easy and straightforward. In this updated edition it has been kept in mind to condense and include the latest major meaningful advances in medical microbiology in this volume. Distinct feature of this volume is inclusion of updated medical parasitology with Entomology. All the chapters are thoroughly revised and updated as highlighted by esteemed readers from time to time. New chapters are included namely; microbiology in the service of human being, molecular techniques in microbiology, emerging and re-emerging infections and laboratory and hospital wastes.
