Summary

Zoonoses are diseases naturally transmissible between vertebrates and manincluding those transmitted by direct contact with infected animals or carcases,by food or water contamination, and by inhalation of infected dust. They areincreasingly important in public health issues. This multidisciplinary book iswritten by international specialists in human and vetinary medicine. Dividedinto three sections along the lines of bacteriology, parasitology and virology,this book comprehensively covers all zoonoses. Each of the seventy chapterscovers the history of the disease, the scientific basis for the control ofzoonoses, the microbiology of the causative agent, pathogenesis, clinicalfeatures, symptoms and signs, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis. Theepidemiology and epizoology of each disease is described alongside thestrategies for prevention and control.
