This textbook, for medical microbiologists and microbiology MLSOs (and trainees), details laboratory methods for the identification of infectious organisms. It is organized on a taxonomic basis: each organism has its own chapter in which all relevant techniques are described.

This textbook is the descendant of Volume One of the text by Mackie and McCartney which was first published in 1925. It is a book for medical microbiologists and microbiology MLSOs (and trainees) that details laboratory methods for the identification of infectious organisms. It is organized on a taxonomic basis: each organism has its own chapter in which all relevant techniques are described. This edition includes: new methods of identification featured, including PCR and related techniques; description of use of diagnostic kits, which are of increasing importance; a new chapter on helminthology; a removal of many old-fashioned techniques.
