| Summary, etc |
"This, the sixteenth edition of Bailey & Scott's Diagnostic Microbiology, is the fourth edition that I have had the great pleasure to edit and author with some amazing colleagues. The dynamics of infectious disease trends, along with the technical developments available for diagnosing, treating, and controlling diseases, continues to present major challenges in the laboratory and medical care. In meeting these challenges, the primary goal for the sixteenth edition is to provide an updated and reliable reference text for practicing clinical microbiologists and technologists while also presenting this information in a format that supports the educational efforts of those responsible for preparing others for a career in medical and diagnostic microbiology. The text retains the traditional information needed to develop a solid, basic understanding of diagnostic microbiology while integrating the dynamic expansion of molecular diagnostics, automation, artificial intelligence (Al), and matrix-assisted laser desorption time-of-flight mass spectrometry.<br/><br/>We have kept the favorite features and adjusted in response to important critical input from users of the text. The succinct presentation of each organism group's key laboratory, clinical, epidemiologic, and therapeutic features in tables and figures has been kept and updated. Regarding content, the major changes reflect the changes that the discipline of diagnostic microbiology continues to experience. Also, although the grouping of organisms into sections according to key features (e.g.. Gram reaction, catalase or oxidase reaction, growth on MacConkey agar) has remained, changes regarding the genera and species discussed in these sections have been made. These changes, along with changes in organism nomenclature, were made to accurately reflect the changes that have occurred, and continue to occur, in taxonomy. Also, throughout the text, the content has been altered to minimize the use of gender specific terminology where appropriate to recognize the unique nature and<br/><br/>changes in population dynamics and environmental fac-tors that contribute to the development, transmission, and treatment in infectious disease. Finally, although some classic methods for bacterial identification and characterization developed over the years (e.g., catalase, oxidase, Gram stain) continue to play a critical role in today's laboratory, others have given way to commercial identification systems. We realize that in a textbook such as this, a balance is needed. for practicing and teaching diagnostic microbiology; our selection of identification methods that receive the most detailed attention may not always meet the needs of every-one. However, we have tried to be consistent in selecting those methods that reflect the common practices in clinical microbiology laboratories, along with those that present historical information required to educate others.<br/><br/>Finally, in terms of organization, the sixteenth edition includes a variety of instructor ancillaries available on the Evolve website, including an expanded test bank, updated PowerPoints, a laboratory manual with answers, review questions with answer keys, and an electronic image collection. Student resources include a laboratory manual, review questions, online case studies, and online procedures.<br/><br/>We sincerely hope that clinical microbiology practitioners and educators continue to find Bailey & Scott's Diagnostic Microbiology, sixteenth edition, a worthy and useful tool to support their professional activities." —Preface |
