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.
Key Features:
-Contributions from 74 experts in the field capture the rapid developments in understanding the mechanisms of virulence of the major bacterial pathogens of animals.
-Includes a color plate section that provides valuable detail to clinical images.
-Presents both the overview of pathogenesis, including relevant events that occur in the herd or flock and its environment, and actions taking place at the cellular and molecular levels.
-Serves as a valuable reference for veterinary and medical microbiologists, immunologists, and pathologists, as well as graduate students in veterinary medicine and animal science.
The Editors:
Carlton L. Gyles, DVM, MSc, PhD, FCAHS, is Professor of Veterinary Microbiology at Ontario Veterinary College, University of Guelph, Ontario, Canada.
John F. Prescott, MA, Vet MB, PhD, FCAHS, is Professor of Veterinary Microbiology at Ontario Veterinary.' College, University of Guelph, Ontario, Canada.
J. Glenn Songer, PhD, is Professor of Veterinary Science and Microbiology, The University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona.
Charles O. Thoen, DVM, PhD, is Professor and Former Chair, Department of Veterinary Microbiology and Preventive Medicine, College of Veterinary Medicine, Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa.
In this update of the 2004, 1993, and 1986 editions, Gyles (Ontario Veterinary College, U. of Guelph, Canada) and other veterinary microbiologists compile 31 chapters by international experts that present "post-genome era" understanding of the evolution and pathogenesis of animal diseases caused by various species of bacteria. Bacterium profiles include characteristics, sources, related diseases, virulence factors, and interactions with host defenses. The primary focus is on activities at the cellular and molecular levels, but relevant events that occur in the animals in situ are also discussed. This edition omits chapters on Shigella and Erysipelothris rhusiopathiae; adds one on how bacterial pathogens subvert the immune response; and devotes separate chapters to Pasteurella and Mannheimia. Color schematics represent pathogenic processes. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
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.
Recenzijas
"Veterinary medical education has led the medical professions in the intricate teaching of microbial pathogenesis of infectious diseases. The fourth edition of Pathogenesis of Bacterial Infections in Animals continues this legacy with introductory chapters regarding themes in bacterial pathogenic mechanisms, subversion of the immune response by bacterial pathogens, and the evolution of bacterial virulence. This book is an excellent text for graduate students in veterinary microbiology, pathology, pathobiology, and preventive medicine and veterinarians studying for related AVMA-recognized board certifications. The comprehensive and extremely current references with each chapter will be useful to those investigating the pathology and infectious diseases of animals." (Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, December 2010)
