Clinical Microbiology Made Ridiculously Simple: Color Edition 9th Edition

Easy to read and understand

I feel like a nerd because I actually enjoy reading this clinical microbiology book! Not only does this book offer valuable and updated information, but it’s also fun to read with all these hilarious tricks to help with my aging memory. I wish we had this book back in the days of med school.

I purchased this book as an additional textbook for my microbiology classes at the medical school. It has funny illustrations and conveys info in a simple way. I loved reading it and never got tired. It is not a shiny book but print quality is nice. CMMRS helped me to ace microbiology final, but have not used it for step 1 prep. Would recommend!

This is an excellent book. I would highly recommend it to students studying microbiology

👌

I hate to be the contrarian... but I do not think this book is good anyone trying to learn clinical microbio on a first go around. And even then, I don't think it's the best book for review either. I am finding deja's review to be much more useful.Personally, I found the cartoons not very helpful. Okay, they're goofy and funny but I thought they were annoying especially when I was trying to actually learn specific details. The material is still very dense regardless of how "simple" it's been made here. There is still large tables of information. Learning from tables is very difficult, at least for me.I guess what I wanted was Goljan but for microbio... Maybe that's my fault... In any case, there's my two cents.

Good quality for a class required textbook.

Honest review: Purchase this book to help you remember details about microbiology for medical school. The price is not too bad compared to some other required medical textbooks. This text really helped with the immunology-heavy portion of my curriculum and I am fairly certain it will up your micro scores if you put in the work. Some of the drawings are goofy but for me, the goofier the better. Bring this text to class and share the awesome tidbits in this book with your classmates.
