  • Numerous case examples -- appropriate for PBL and integrated curricula -- to further highlight clinical application of the content
  • Key points summaries and Guiding Questions that drive home core concepts and aid comprehension
  • 24 eye-catching color plates that depict major pathogens and reinforce the impact of clinical infection
