Now in full color with improved images throughout, the new edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect information from current research and diagnostic and clinical publications. Key changes include a review of microbial cell structure and function and increased emphasis on the key points of pathogenesis and host responses to infection.Organized into four sections, the Third Edition begins with an updated and expanded intrAnimal populationsElectronic books.Animal populations.591.788McVey D.
