About this book

Essentials of Microbiology for Postgraduates is a comprehensive, clinically relevant guide structured into five sections covering gram-positive and gram-negative cocci, bacilli, anaerobes, and other bacterial groups. With over 1,000 figures and 500+ tables, it offers an atlas-like experience and facilitates rapid comparison. Content is referenced from authoritative sources such as Mandell, Harrison, NCBI, CDC, WHO, and Indian health databases. Detailed pathogenesis, epidemiology, clinical features, diagnostics, treatment (including AMR insights), and prevention are covered. The book retains the hallmark features of the author's MBBS text - concise bullets, lucid language, and high-yield boxes - making it ideal for quick review and postgraduate exam preparation.

Sections: Book is divided into five sections - gram-positive and gram-negative cocci, gram-positive bacilli, gram-negative bacilli, anaerobic bacteria, and other groups of bacteria.

Figures: More than 1,000 figures have been incorporated, most of which are from the collection of the author's own department, representing an analog of a bacteriology atlas.

Tables: More than 500 tables have been incorporated to enable quick comparison between different entities.

Taxonomy and classification of every bacterial pathogen has been adapted from standard reference sources such as NCBI Taxonomy and Genome Taxonomy Database.

Pathogenesis adapted from Mandell's 9th edition, Harrison's 21st edition, and review articles of reputed journals.

Epidemiology referenced from Mandell, Harrison, Park's PSM 27th edition, CDC and WHO websites, National Health Profile 2023 and IDSP India.

Treatment referenced from Mandell, Harrison and The Sanford Guide to Antimicrobial Therapy, with AMR mechanisms, detection methods and current Indian status.

Prevention: infection control measures adapted from CDC Guideline for Isolation Precautions and the author's Essentials of Hospital Infection Control.
