Microbiology An Introduction (13th edition) written by Gerard J. Tortora, Berdell R. Funke, and Christine L. CaseFree download Microbiology An Introduction (13th edition) written by Gerard J. Tortora, Berdell R. Funke, and Christine L. Case in pdf.

The 13th Edition of Tortora, Funke, and Case’s Microbiology: An Introduction brings a 21st-century lens to this trusted market-leading introductory textbook. New and updated features, such as Exploring the Microbiome boxes and Big Picture spreads, emphasize how our understanding of microbiology is constantly expanding. New In the Clinic Video Tutors in Mastering Microbiology illustrate how students can apply their learning to their future careers. Mastering Microbiology also includes new Ready-to-Go Teaching Modules that guide you through the most effective teaching tools available.

The thirteenth edition focuses on big-picture concepts and themes in microbiology, encouraging students to visualize and synthesize more difficult topics such as microbial metabolism, immunology, and microbial genetics.

The thirteenth edition meets all students at their respective= levels of skill and understanding while addressing the biggest challenges that instructors face. Updates to the thirteenth edition enhance the book’s consistent pedagogy and clear explanations.
Some of the highlights follow.

  • Exploring the Microbiome. Each chapter has a new box featuring an aspect of microbiome study related to the chapter. Most feature the human microbiome. The boxes are designed to show the importance of microorganisms in health, their importance to life on Earth, and how research on the microbiome is being done.
  • In the Clinic videos accompanying each chapter opener. In the Clinic scenarios that appear at the start of every chapter include critical-thinking questions that encourage students to think as health care professionals would in various clinical scenarios and spark student interest in the forthcoming chapter content. For the thirteenth edition, videos have been produced for the In the Clinic features for Chapters 1 through 20 and are accessible through Mastering Microbiology.
  • New Big Picture disease features. New Big Picture features include Vaccine-Preventable Diseases (Chapter 18), Vertical Transmission: Mother to Child (Chapter 22), and Bioterrorism (Chapter 24).
  • Reworked immunology coverage in Chapters 17, 18, and 19. New art and more straightforward discussions make this challenging and critical material easier for students to understand and retain.
