An extraordinary array of infectious agents affects humans; from worms, arthopods, and fungi to bacteria, viruses, and prions. In this compendium of the curious and fascinating organisms that cause disease, including Legionnaire's disease, mumps, CJD, and chlamydia, David I. Grove provides a lively, fact-filled account of the nature of each organism, their life cycle, the ingenious ways in which they infect humans, and the human stories behind their discovery.

Quatrième de couverture : "Comment de nouvelles maladies infectieuses apparaissent-elles ? Pourquoi certains antibiotiques cessent-ils d'être efficaces ? Quels impacts peuvent avoir les changements de mode de vie ou les politiques de santé publique sur la virulence des agents pathogènes ? La pandémie du nouveau coronavirus humain, après celles du VIH ou de bactéries multi-résistantes, illustre de manière éclatante l'importance et la rapidité de l'évolution des microbes. A l'approche pasteurienne, qui décortique les mécanismes cellulaires pour apporter des réponses au niveau individuel, il est nécessaire d'associer une approche darwinienne qui étudie la dynamique des populations au sein de leurs environnements : seule une démarche intégrant les deux approches permettra de maîtriser les agents infectieux et de trouver des traitements tant originaux que durables."

The increase of immigrant population in developed countries (mainly in Europe and North America) together with an important increase of international travel worldwide are the two most important causes that have contributed to the introduction and diagnosis of imported/tropical infectious diseases in these countries. These factors have had an important impact in developed countries in both social and economic aspects. Imported Infectious Diseases focuses not only on describing the infections, but also in evaluating the current epidemiology, the economic and social impact and the possibility to
