Overview

Microbiology is best learned at the bedside-not in isolation from real patients. This book takes you beyond memorizing organisms and laboratory facts and places you directly into 80 carefully designed clinical scenarios that mirror real-life patient encounters. Each case begins with a clinical presentation and challenges you to think like a clinician: analyze symptoms, recognize patterns, identify the causative pathogen, and choose the correct investigation and treatment. Designed for medical students, international medical graduates (IMGs), residents, and practicing doctors, this book integrates basic microbiology with clinical reasoning, making it ideal for USMLE, PLAB, MRCP, and other medical licensing exams, as well as daily ward practice. Every scenario emphasizes high-yield organisms, classic exam traps, virulence factors, diagnostic clues, and management principles, helping you build strong mental frameworks rather than fragmented facts. The explanations link microbiology to pathology, immunology, pharmacology, and clinical medicine-exactly how you are expected to think in exams and real practice. If you want to master microbiology in a practical, memorable, and exam-focused way, this book will train you to move confidently from bugs to bedside.
