 It’s a great addition to my text book, March 07, 2018

Very resourceful. Gives things simply and to the point. The author adds little funny lines through out to keep the topic light but also helps with recalling important info. So far-so good.

 has great drawings, funny mnemonics, September 26, 2017

This book is straight to the point, has great drawings, funny mnemonics, and especially useful charts to help you memorize organisms. Although, it's geared towards studying for boards. I use it as a tool to study for my microbiologist license. Since, there's so much to remember in microbiology, this book makes it fun and enjoyable.
