Some of the chapters in this book are too advanced for a introductory Microbiology class.

Decent text, helpful images...
I bought this book for a microbiology class-- note to future students: just buy an older edition. they don't change too much and spending $$$ on a new hardcover current edition for ONE semester of college isn't worth it.
Shipping Info Not Accurate February 13, 2008

The item was correct & came in good condition, but DON'T believe Amazon's shipping info. Instead of picking the free shipping this product was eligible for (which said could take anywhere from 3-14 business days, I paid for Standard Shipping (since Amazon said it took 3-5 business days). By the 6th business day I STILL hadn't received the book & called customer service where they basically said even though their shipping policy clearly states 3-5 business days that that is not always when you get it?!? I received my book on the 12th business day! Had I known their shipping info was basically a lie, I would have paid for Express or Overnight shipping. So if you need a product by a certain day, don't count on Amazon's shipping policies.

I never recieved this product. The seller never sent it, even after I contacted them. I never recieved a response. I also contacted amazon about the book not being shipped and the funds were already taken from my account to pay for it. I never recieved a response from them either. I will never purchase anything from here again.It doesnt even deserve the one star

i ordered this item with expediated service so i could get this quickly, instead they waited a whole four days before they sent it and i never received my item, i was very disappointed in there lack of service, i dont understand why your going to charge extra for quicker delivery charge and then dont send it out at all, they told me to check the usps website to see if it was delivered, i could not get any information from them, i have yet to receive my book, i purchased my book at the school store because i had a big test coming up and i had to cram study because of this, i will never purchase anything from this carrier again
