  • "Supplies the necessary information for any doctor, nurse or allied medical professional who needs more information about tuberculosis. It is a particularly rich source of reference to modern up-to-date literature regarding diagnosis and management of the disease. It will be an invaluable source for anyone who wishes to find out more about tuberculosis at virtually any level of education. This edition includes coverage of newly emerging methods of diagnosis, in particular molecular methods, as they are incorporated as routine laboratory tests."
  • "A resource for respiratory physicians, infectious disease specialists, public health workers and other individuals involved in the management and control of tuberculosis worldwide, this established reference is a comprehensive account of tuberculosis, providing up-to-date and authoritative information on all aspects of the disease. It gives practical guidance to health professionals who may be involved in any aspect of patient management or disease control, including chapters on epidemiology, pathology, immunology, disease presentation, diagnosis, treatment and management options. Specific consideration is given to the problems of TB associated with HIV infection, and issues of control relating to low and high prevalence countries respectively. The ongoing issues surrounding the BCG vaccination and preventive therapy are also covered, as are the increasing problems of multi-drug resistant strains and environmental opportunist mycobacteria."
