Infos

Since the publication of the last edition of Principles and
Practice of Clinical Bacteriology, our understanding of
bacterial genetics and pathogenicity has been transformed due to
the availability of whole genome sequences and new technologies
such as proteomics and transcriptomics. The present, completely
revised second edition of this greatly valued work has been
developed to integrate this new knowledge in a clinically relevant
manner.

Principles and Practice of Clinical Bacteriology, Second
Edition, provides the reader with invaluable information on
the parasitology, pathogenesis, epidemiology and treatment
strategies for each pathogen while offering a succinct outline of
the best current methods for diagnosis of human bacterial
diseases.

With contributions from an international team of experts in the
field, this book is an invaluable reference work for all clinical
microbiologists, infectious disease physicians, public health
physicians and trainees within these disciplines.
