Inhaltsangabe

Pathogenesis of Bacterial Infections in Animals, Fourth Edition captures the rapid developments in understanding the mechanisms of virulence of the major bacterial pathogens of animals. Now including a color plate section, the book presents an overview of pathogenesis, including relevant events that occur in the herd or flock and its environment, and activities that take place at the cellular and molecular levels. With contributions from 64 experts in the field, this book serves as a great reference for graduate students in veterinary medicine and animal science, microbiologists, virologists and pathologists.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

The fourth edition of Pathogenesis of Bacterial Infections in Animals captures the rapid developments in understanding the mechanisms of virulence of the major bacterial pathogens affecting animals. The new edition now includes a color plate section, providing valuable detail to clinical illustrations. New emphasis is given to bacterial evasion of the immune system, overarching themes in pathogenesis, and the contributions of pathogenomics and newer approaches.

As in the previous editions, the core of the book presents both an overview of pathogenesis of important bacterial infections of animals, including relevant events that occur in the herd or flock and its environment, and in-depth analysis of actions taking place at the cellular and molecular levels. With contributions from 74 experts in the field, this book serves as a remarkable resource for veterinary and medical microbiologists, immunologists, and pathologists, as well as graduate students in veterinary medicine and animal science.
