As a modern learning resource, it incorporates recent scientific developments and concepts to give readers a complete overview of each zoonoses. Written by three well-qualified authors in academia, sample topics covered within the book include:

* Bacterial, viral, parasitic, rickettsial, fungal, prion, and foodborne zoonoses

* Aetiology and epidemiology of each zoonotic disease

* Clinical symptoms and diagnosis in animals and humans

* Treatment options, plus prevention and control strategies

* CDC classification of zoonotic agents and the WHO's list of 'neglected zoonoses'

Written for undergraduate and postgraduate students studying veterinary public health and epidemiology, Textbook of Zoonoses is also a helpful resource for other veterinary and medical professionals interested in public health and epidemiology.
