Ms. Capeci explains the basics of microbiology and the structure and behavior of bacteria, but she entirely neglects RNA recombination. This is a shame, because RNA recombination is the most interesting part of microbiology.The bio-chem is a little weak.I will say, however, that I have cribbed bits of this book for my thesis.

It uses the common language to explain what is a germ. I think it is a great introductory book for young reader on the subject of microbiology. It does have all the latin names and need some help with adults (or dictionary) for proper pronounciation. The only little disappointment I feel about this one is the note for proper pronounciation of those scientific names of microbes and taxonomy (only a few).
