<p>This book consists of topics according to the syllabus of nursing stream. It consists of – General Microbiology, Immunology, Bacteriology, Virology, Mycology, Parasitology and Applied Microbiology. The book comprises the diagrams and flowcharts accordingly.</p><p>Since 2009, I have been teaching medical and paramedical students. For medical students, however, various options are available but for paramedical students limited books are available. During teaching to paramedic’s, I had to make them understand to read medical books for proper concepts because without concept they could not understand the topic. I had to advise them to go for xerox to a particular chapter from particular medical book. Finally, I started to provide them my notes (soft copy of Ppt. or print out) to avoid this type of confusion because most of the students were not able to purchase these costly medical books. I had been appointed as an external examiner for paramedical examination in different paramedical institutes and observed the same difficulties in these institute’s students also.</p><p>Some paramedical (Nursing) colleges are also attached with their respective medical colleges and faculty from these medical colleges are used to appoint to teach these paramedical students especially for anatomy, biochemistry and microbiology subjects. They cannot teach these paramedical (Nursing) students as medical student. Therefore, faculty members are also facing the difficulties that how much to teach them because the books presently available in the market are not satisfying the teachers and students as well.</p><p>Some students and faculty members gave me opinion to publish my notes in the form of book. After proper discussion with paramedical students, I have come to know their requirements. Now I have prepared my notes in form of book that consists of concise information which is sufficient for nursing students. This book consists of easy language, concise and proper information for concepts with flow charts, diagrams and expected question that can be asked in examination.</p><p>Dear students, remember, this book is for you, if you find any difficulty to understand any topic or you want to modified any chapter according to your need, then you can contact me through my email without any hesitation. I will try my best to fulfil your requirement.</p>
