This textbook from CBS Publishers & Distributors is an English medium (अंग्रेज़ी माध्यम) title by D.R. Arora and Brij Bala Arora, written for nursing students (नर्सिंग विद्यार्थी) studying applied microbiology. (cite index="506-1">All the chapters have been written and arranged as per the syllabus of the Indian Nursing Council for B.Sc Nursing. (cite index="502-1">The second edition was published by CBS Publishers & Distributors and runs to around 360 pages. The cover sets out what distinguishes this edition: it has been written by senior subject experts and faculty members with more than forty years of teaching experience; five new chapters have been added in line with the revised INC syllabus for B.Sc (N); infection control and safety is included as part of the coverage; and the book carries more than 300 illustrations and photographs. Those two additions — the new chapters and the infection control section — matter because the revised INC curriculum folded infection control and patient safety into the microbiology paper, so a nursing student now needs both in one book. The heavy illustration count serves the same practical end: a nurse identifies organisms and recognises procedures visually far more often than she recalls them descriptively. The authors' background in microbiology teaching is long-standing, and the writing keeps to the level a nursing course requires rather than compressing a medical text. The whole book is written in English in the Roman script. Key Features: English medium book — complete content written in English (Roman script) Written by D.R.
