Part 1 of Sherris Medical Microbiology 6th edition PDF opens with a non-technical chapter that explains the nature of infection and the infection agents. The following 4 chapters provide more detail about the immune response to infection and the epidemiology, prevention, and diagnosis of infectious disease. Parts 2 through 5 form the core of the textbook with chapters on the major viral, fungal, bacterial, and parasitic diseases. Each of these sections opens with chapters on pathogenesis, basic biology, and antimicrobial agents.

  • In addition to the chapter-ending case questions, a collection of 100 practice questions is also included
  • A clinical case with USMLE-style questions concludes each chapter on the major viral, fungal, bacterial, and parasitic diseases
  • 57 chapters that simply and clearly describe the strains of viruses, fungi, bacteria, and parasites that can bring about infectious diseases
