Inhaltsangabe:

Communicable diseases devastate entire populations in both developing countries and the developed world. Understanding the epidemiology of these diseases is vital to doctors and specialists involved in communicable disease control. As a resource for doctors, epidemiologists and public health practitioners, this book covers a wide range of important communicable diseases. By drawing on practical experience and a wide range of other sources, the author reviews communicable diseases in a global perspective. The first part of the book describes epidemiological methods and illustrates their use with practical examples. The second part covers communicable disease in a systematic manner grouping diseases by epidemiological criteria. This classification enables control to be instigated using the epidemiological principles and control methods described in the first part of the book. To balance informativeness with simple and practical delivery, a comprehensive outline of known communicable diseases is given in an annex at the end of the book.
