Zoonoses and communicable diseases common to man and animals: Vol. 1: Bacterioses and mycoses

This text - useful for schools of public health, medicine, and veterinary medicine, as well as public health and animal health institutions - offers information on zoonoses and communicable diseases common to man and animals in Latin America and the rest of the world. Thanks to new technologies and advances in epidemiology, ecology and other biological and social sciences, great progress has been made regarding these diseases since the first edition was published in 1977. This edition is published in three volumes: Bacterioses and Mycoses ; the second Chlamydioses, rickettsioses and Viroses ; and the third Parasitic Zoonoses . This work also includes maps, tables and figures which help to explain the transmission cycle and the geographic distribution and prevalence of many of these diseases.
