I took a microbiology class in undergraduate and found this book quite thorough and well-organized no nonsense approach. It got right to the point, without the added wording of many textbooks. I also used the Microbiology Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers by Patrick Leonardi which is on amazon.com.
I found the last book to be quite on the mark with the type of questions to know for the test. These two books really helped alleviate many surprise questions on my microbiology exams. My friend who took microbiology last year recommended these two books. He was right, these two books helped me get an A.

I got this book yesterday because The text book we are using for undergraduate class is Microbiology -An introduction by Tortora, makes no sense. It has tonnes of details to sift through before getting to the dang point.In the middle of one chapter you have to constantly jump to another chapter , not even on the syllabus yet.

However, As a pre- nursing student I find the Super Review very straight forward and to the point.Its not extremely detailed but it tells you what you need to know so you can understand to topic, then refer to your text to make sure everything...Read more

This review book is great! I used the same brand for anatomy and physiology and it helped me tremendously. This one is great too. And much more portable than my textbook! I can take it anywhere...
