A pocket companion for the clinical microbiologist, both in the diagnostic laboratory and in the hospital ward or clinic. The book aims to be a one-stop reference for the busy medical microbiologist. It bridges the gap between diagnostic microbiology and clinical infectious disease, making it ideal for use when clinicians want immediate guidance - for example, in the middle of the night when relatively junior members of staff have to make quick, informed decisions with no time for referring to major reference texts. It should be ideal for trainees but will also suit all grades of staff working in diagnostic microbiology laboratories, whether medically qualified or not. Infectious disease physicians should also find it useful. With a problem-based format and layout designed for immediate reference in the laboratory or on the ward, it will be invaluable in helping the reader make informed decisions with confidence.
