Book Reviews of Brock Biology of Microorganisms (12th Edition)

Book Review: NIce read- if you're into that kind of thing
Summary: 5 Stars

As far as textbooks go I find no faults with Brock. The book has a great level of depth and certainly covers such a broad subject splendidly. I'm finding it difficult to separate the book from the instructor I had but as I think about it I wish I had relied more on the text than on lecture notes. Since most people purchasing this text are forced to buy it, I'll speak to the minority of those just desiring to learn microbiology on their own and say- "you're crazy" and you should probably read Brock!
