It also discusses selected features of a number of infectious diseases. In short, this book is intended to present microorganisms to anyone who is interested and curious about the microbial world. Individuals, whether familiar or not familiar with this microscopic world of life, can gain some perspective as to the many types of microorganisms and their activities that exist in the world around them."--Preface, p. xvii.
