Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Leishmaniasis is a vector-borne, parasitic disease with tremendous variety in presentation, biology, and epidemiology. Any book on this disease must acknowledge the nearly impossible task of providing an exhaustive account of leishmaniasis simply because the epidemiology of the disease is so very complex. This book addresses some of this variety with chapters on the epidemiology of leishmaniasis in North Africa, Central America, and South America. The purpose of the book is not to specifically address diagnosis and treatment of the disease, but rather to provide a sample of the differing epidemiologies of leishmaniasis that occur due to variations in local habitats; the presence of different vectors, reservoirs, and agents; and the wide variety of cultures in which this disease occurs.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 176 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Current Issues in Global Health provides a forum for a broad discussion of health issues, from systemic violence to infectious disease in places as far apart as Kashmir and South America. The authors come from a variety of environments including military and academic positions. Despite the diversity of subject matter and authors, the consistent theme of the book always focuses on the provision of an environment in which members of a community can achieve or maintain good public health. The subjects addressed here are those that cross international borders and affect lives around the world, thus truly qualifying as issues of global health importance.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 110 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -When diseases occur in a human population at higher than expected levels, those diseases are said to be 'epidemic.' Animals also experience outbreaks at levels greater than expected, and when that happens, it is called 'epizootic'. There have been several very large epizootics in recent years, with one of the biggest being the West Nile virus expansion into the Americas. This caused significant bird mortality, and it expanded into the human population as well. The effect of epizootics on human health is, therefore, of great importance. Still, epizootics can be extremely important even if humans are unaffected. This book describes several recent epizootics, discusses why they occurred, and what kind of response may be necessary.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 178 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Public health has been defined as the efforts of a community that allow a population to remain healthy. This definition is very inclusive, so elements of clinical care, health promotion and many other fields contribute to the larger discipline of public health. The profession has evolved in recent years, with the emphasis in the developed world changing from the hygiene method for control of infectious diseases to a more complex approach to address chronic disease. However, the focus in public health continues to be the population. This book provides a sample of fields that contribute to the public health profession. Its broad approach provides examples of the core fields of public health, including environmental health, epidemiology, biostatistics, health administration, and health behavior.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 308 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Of all the parasitic diseases, leishmaniasis is one of the most diverse, with a variety of manifestations, from relatively minor cutaneous lesions to deadly visceral infections. It is also widespread, causing human disease in the Americas, Asia, Europe and Africa. The environments in which this disease occurs range from desert to tropical jungle to urban habitats. Not surprisingly, the literature on this disease is written in a variety of languages including Portuguese, Arabic, English and French among others. This book provides a synopsis in English of much of the recent research on leishmaniasis, with a focus on the epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment of the disease as described by researchers around the world, but with a focus on the research from Brazil and the Middle East.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 536 pp. Englisch.
