Disease: Identification, Prevention and Control

by Barbara P. Hamann

This text presents current information about communicable and chronic diseases and their histories from a nonclinical point of view. Because communicable disease and chronic disease are discussed in separate units, the student is able to focus on the two types of disease processes. Including an overview of the principles of disease occurrence and of the body's defenses, this text provides details and stimulating information regarding the body's vulnerability to disease.
