For the first week of lectures, hard copies of the lecture slide handouts
will be provided to you in class. After the first week, check the Website to
download and print your own copy of the lecture handouts to bring to
class.
- The textbook used for the course is titled "Microbiology: An Evolving Science" by Joan L. Slonczewski and John W. Foster (W. W. Norton & Company, Inc. 2009). I checked one of the bookstores in Campustown and it was selling for $159.15 for a new copy ($119.35 for a used copy, if you can find one). Besides purchasing the book from other sources, you can also purchase an e-book online version for less than half the list price from the publishers (go to nortonebooks.com). Another possibility is to purchase individual chapters online for $2 each from the same website (there are 30 chapters in the textbook, but not all of them will be used during the course).
