This book rocks. Seriously. The second edition is a serious improvement over the first. The integration with with other Lippincott reviews (Biochem & Pharm) puts this book on the must-have short-list for Step 1.
Watch out Med Micro Made Ridiculously Simple, this could and should be the new number one USMLE micro book.
Summary: A Lot of Information Given Out Pretty Fast

Notice the word 'Reviews' in the title. This series of books from Lippincott are just that. A review of the subject, in this case Microbiology. This book doesn't spend a lot of time introducing you to the basic concepts of microbiology. The third sentence in the book explains it pretty well: 'In this volume, we primarily consider the role of microorganisms - bacteris, fungi, protozoa, helminths, and viruses - in the initiation and spread of human diseases.'
I find that this book is a bit advanced for undergraduate study. It is not a general text on microbiology. As the sentence quoted above clearly says, it is oriented to diseases. But for a graduate student who needs either a rapid review of past microbiology courses, or who now needs to get up to speed in this area it is an excellent choice. In its 450 or so pages it completely covers the subject and in a fairly light, fast, well illustrated, and well summarized manner. It even has time, once in a while to insert a microbiology oriented cartoon.
Summary: Good but not as good as the [FONT=arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif][FONT=arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif]biochemistry [/FONT][/FONT]review

I bought Lippicott's microbiology review, after having WONDERFUL success with their biochemistry review text. The one fundamental difference in the text books is that there is no summary at the end of each chapter. The summaries are awesome, and without them, this review series is not nearly as helpful.
Summary: Good mirco review for microbiology class

I used this book for my medical microbiology class as a study tool and found it quite useful. It highlights all you need to know for [FONT=arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif][FONT=arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif]fungi[/FONT][/FONT], [FONT=arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif][FONT=arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif]bacteria[/FONT][/FONT], viruses and parasites.
