- Discusses infectious diseases according to organ systems that may be affected, as well as individually by microorganisms, placing emphasis on clinical manifestations that may be related to the organism causing the disease.
- Provides detailed information regarding the best means to establish a diagnosis, explicit recommendations for therapy, and the most appropriate uses of diagnostic imaging.
- Includes expanded information on Q fever, antibiotic resistance and antibiotic agents, human coronaviruses, pox viruses, and infections in the compromised host, and contains new COVID-19 content across numerous chapters.
- Features a new chapter on antimicrobial stewardship, and new coverage of antivirals for pox viruses.
- Reflects today’s more aggressive infectious and antibiotic-resistant organisms as well as emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases.
- Contains hundreds of full-color images (many are new!), including clinical photos, radiographic images, drawings, charts, and graphs.
- Enhanced eBook version included with purchase. Your enhanced eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices. Additional digital ancillary content may publish up to 6 weeks following the publication date.
