Talaro/Chess: Foundations in Microbiology is an allied health 
microbiology text for non-science majors with a taxonomic approach to 
the disease chapters. It offers an engaging and accessible writing style
 through the use of tools such as case studies and analogies to 
thoroughly explain difficult microbiology concepts.  The newest of these
 features includes the Secret World of Microbes and Quick Search.  We 
are so excited to offer a robust learning program with student-focused 
learning activities, allowing the student to manage their learning while
 you easily manage their assessment.  Revised art and updated photos 
help concepts stand out.  Detailed reports show how your assignments 
measure various learning objectives from the book (or input your own!), 
levels of Bloom`s Taxonomy or other categories, and how your students 
are doing. The Talaro Learning program will save you time while 
improving your students success in this course.
