• More than 700 full-color, high-quality, color-accurate photographs serve as a visual reference for students in the laboratory and aid in interpreting results in the lab.
• The purpose and principle are set forth for each technique and test in the book so students will understand the “why” as well as the “how” in learning to be proficient microbiologists.
• A section on microscopy provides practical information about how to operate a microscope.
• Informative color diagrams, clearly written captions, and additional text provide helpful information to make the atlas easy to use and understand.

• A significant number of the 700 photographs and light micrographs have been replaced or edited to improve contrast and color.
• New transmission and scanning electron micrographs have been included to enhance the sections on bacterial structure.
• Revised organismal sections that take a phylogenetic approach. Relevant taxa are included in the photo captions to assist the reader in maintaining their bearings as they study taxonomy.
• The printing of bacterial micrographs with the cells on the page approximating their size as seen through a 1000X oil immersion lens.
