The Atlas of Human Infectious Diseases provides a much
needed practical and visual overview of the current distribution
and determinants of major infectious diseases of humans. The
comprehensive full-color maps show at a glance the areas with
reported infections and outbreaks, and are accompanied by a concise
summary of key information on the infectious agent and its clinical
and epidemiological characteristics. Since infectious diseases are
dynamic, the maps are presented in the context of a changing world,
and how these changes are influencing the geographical distribution
on human infections.
This unique atlas:
Contains more than 145 high quality full-color maps covering
all major human infectious diseases
Provides key information on the illustrated infectious
diseases
Has been compiled and reviewed by an editorial board of
infectious disease experts from around the world
The result is a concise atlas with a consistent format
throughout, where material essential for understanding the global
spatial distribution of infectious diseases has been thoughtfully
assembled by international experts. Atlas of Human Infectious
Diseases is an essential tool for infectious disease
specialists, medical microbiologists, virologists, travel medicine
specialists, and public health professionals.
The Atlas of Human Infectious Diseases is accompanied by
a FREE enhanced Wiley Desktop Edition - an interactive digital
version of the book with downloadable images and text, highlighting
and note-taking facilities, book-marking, cross-referencing,
in-text searching, and linking to references and glossary
terms.
