First know that I LOVE this book, it is so very detailed. If you are going to limit yourself to a single diagnostic Micro book, THIS Is the one to buy. I have critiques of both the Kindle and the hard copy (yes, I bought both) but still its a text that I savor every time I open it. I'd been waiting for the new Koneman and hoping it was on Kindle beause I hate carrying the big one around...THe reason for subtracting 1/2 a stars is that EVERY SINGLE TIME I use the Kindle book...I'm am frustrated with how one has to access the photos & charts. I was just reading about viruses...go to the virus table that gives a brief summary of virus 'families' and damn if the box for rabies doesn't span TWO panes in such a way that I can't see it all at once (see the photo-- the top of the pane is cut off-- I had to go and look at it separately ...that's the kind of think I run into whenever I read the book. My other Kindle textbooks (Bailey and Scott, Mahon) have much better functionality on the Kindle app (using a Ipad Pro). I still love this book but for $100 they could have done a little better.Now for the half star deduction for the hard copy book, I received it packed very poorly (IF you order it, make sure you order NOTHING else with it..because when I received it shipped with a bulky item this text was laying in the box with NOTHING to secure it OR protect it. Poor packing isn't what made me take away from the rating. It arrived with a wrinkled cover and looking at it I think its one of those cheap covers that will come apart in a year of heavy use (the older edition still looks great after years of use). Something about the book cover seems poorly made. I taped it up with clear packing tape to protect it. A book this good warrants a excellent cover, beause its a book you will go to again and again.
Great resource for anyone in a Medical Technology or Medical Laboratory Science Program! I would highly recommend this book!
