- Summary:
- The first edition was published in 1990, and the third, in 2006. Intended as a comprehensive, clinically useful reference, this fourth edition text incorporates extensive updates--necessary in light of the results of molecular genetic analysis and the modification of taxonomic lineage of pathogenic microorganisms. Greene (emeritus, College of Veterinary Medicine, the U. of Georgia)--also the author of numerous chapters--has brought together work from a very long list of contributors. The material is logically organized, generously illustrated, and presented in an attractively designed volume. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
