Diseases of Infection: An Illustrated Textbook
This timely book explores the growing range of infections which provide changing and often unfamiliar problems of recognition and management in the present world. The authors take a broad, practical approach that combines clinical, laboratory, and epidemiological aspects. Clinical photographs
are included, as well as tabular summaries, algorithms, and recent epidemiological data. The infections discussed, which are grouped systematically by major syndrome, include many recently recognized problems such as AIDS and Lyme disease, imported and major tropical diseases, and the growing range
of difficult infections resulting from new medical and surgical procedures, immunocompromise, the use of blood and blood products, and transplantation.
