What People are Saying About This
Our best-selling microbiology reference, Medical Microbiology, often known as the “Murray,” is a classic textbook. Nineth edition print unit forecasts are roughly equivalent to 8th edition unit sales. While some medical programs consider the text “too much” for the short time during their course and prefer a smaller text, many educators and students gravitate toward this more comprehensive text and reference. Even residents use it to explore deeper concepts and prepare for boards.
