Oklahoma Notes, Microbiology and Immunology, second edition, is a comprehensive update of the first edition and designed to serve as a study guide for a review of microbiology and immunology preparatory to Part I of the National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME) examination. The book offers proficiency examinations in each of the five major areas covered - microbial physiology, microbial genetics, immunology, pathology, pathogenic microbiology, and virology. A comprehensive examination at the end as questions, numerous illustrations, summary sentences or phrases and other study aids such enhance the text's usefulness
