A superbly organized and illustrated basic textbook 
Microbes And Society: An Introduction To Microbiology by Edward Alcamo (Professor of Microbiology, State University of New York - Farmingdale) is a superbly organized and illustrated basic textbook introducing the reader to the complex and rapidly evolving science of microbiology which includes bacteria, viruses, protists, and fungi. Of special and particular interest are the chapters devoted to microbial genetics and the controlling of microbes. The role and influence of microbes in human affairs is given meticulous attention including the relationship of microbes to food and food safety; microbial DNA; biotechnology and industry; microbes in agriculture and in the environment; disease and resistance; viral diseases from AIDS to Zoster; and bacterial diseases in humans. Microbes And Society is an ideal classroom text and a highly recommended addition to school and community library microbiology science reference collections.
