“Since the advent of recombinant DNA technology, there
has been a revolution in the prevention and treatment of
human disease. Medical Biotechnology is a welcome addition
to the scientific literature that explains the fundamentals of
the science that underpins this revolution. It will be an
essential text for senior undergraduate and postgraduate
courses in biotechnology in many universities.”
—Michael Butler, Department of Microbiology,
University of Manitoba

“This is the book to burrow into if you really want to learn clinical
laboratory management. It covers all aspects in substantial
detail, and I am not aware of another similar book in this field.
The section on managerial leadership with chapters on motivating through intelligent leadership, effective meetings, and
conflict management make me wish I had this during residency
to use as a foundational reference instead of having to learn all
this on the job over the past few decades.”

From the Series Editor’s Foreword
“This provides the current state of the science for microbial source tracking, especially
as it relates to identifying sources of waterborne microbes of fecal origin. It not only
addresses current methods used for identification of sources of fecal contamination but
also provides perspectives on the assumptions and limitations of tracking approaches and
the challenges faced by scientists conducting tracking studies. In addition, there is an
attempt to gaze into the future, providing a look at how emerging molecular and genomic
techniques will advance the field of microbial source tracking. This is a ‘must have’
resource for anyone interested in tracking microbes to their origin.”

Microbial Risk Analysis of Foods
“Written by a cast of internationally recognized authorities, this book elucidates how
risk analysis of food-borne agents of microbial origin can be used to provide greater
public health protection to our food supply. Risk analysis is a tool to facilitate complex
problem solving and decision making in addressing mitigation of a hazard and comprises
three components. These include risk assessment, risk management, and risk communication. Risk assessment involves using scientific information to describe the likelihood and
magnitude of harm attributed to a specific hazard. Risk management applies to the activities undertaken to control a hazard. Risk communication is the exchange of information
about a hazard among interested parties. Several monographs have been written describing the principles of these three concepts; however, few have been published regarding
how these concepts apply to today’s initiatives to provide safer foods.”

Some of the worst tropical diseases in the world have too long been
ignored. Parasitic and bacterial diseases such as hookworm, snail
fever, river blindness, guinea worm, elephantiasis, sleeping sickness,
and leprosy are the most common infections of third-world populations. These neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) represent one of the
most important reasons why populations living in Africa, Asia, and
Central and South America remain caught in a vicious cycle of poverty, stigma, and despair. The book addresses unique opportunities
to fight the NTDs through low-cost and highly cost-effective control
measures.

PathogenEsis
of
Human
Pulmonary
Tuberculosis
Arthur M. Dannenberg, Jr.
This work examines the pathogenesis of human pulmonary tuberculosis in all of its stages, with a
primary focus on the experimental rabbit model. Tuberculosis in the rabbit model most closely
resembles that found in humans, including caseous necrosis, liquefaction, and cavity formation with
bronchial spread of the disease. Other animal models—mouse, guinea pig, and monkey—are compared with the rabbit and human models.
Authored by an experienced and noted expert in the field, Pathogenesis of Human Pulmonary
Tuberculosis reviews the interplay of delayed-type hypersensitivity and cell-mediated immunity,
clearly showing how both are needed to control the growth of the tubercle bacillus and how
antibodies contribute to these cellular immune responses. The pathology and structure of tuberculous lesions are thoroughly investigated. Other significant topics discussed include the histochemistry of macrophage activation; the roles of various cytokines; the effects of glucocorticoids,
estrogens, thyroid hormones, and irradiation on the disease; and principles of immunization
against tuberculosis, including vaccine development. The final chapter describes many areas in
which future research could contribute to our knowledge, treatment, and control of this disease.
The text is complemented by high-quality illustrations of both human and rabbit disease.
Pathogenesis of Human Pulmonary Tuberculosis updates and revises the ground-breaking work of Max
B. Lurie, summarizing the combined 80 years of research by Drs. Lurie and Dannenberg. The
book offers a comprehensive resource for clinicians, public health investigators, and laboratory
researchers in tuberculosis and immunology.
About the Author
Dr. Arthur M. Dannenberg, Jr., a professor at Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions, has spent his
55-year research career unraveling the intricacies of the pathogenesis of tuberculosis in the rabbit model. He received his M.D. from Harvard Medical School in 1947 and Ph.D. in Microbiology
(Immunology) from the University of Pennsylvania in 1952 under Max B. Lurie, who at that time
was the foremost experimental pathologist of this disease. Lurie outlined the research course
that Dr. Dannenberg has pursued for the rest of his life.

Magic Bullets To Conquer Malaria: from Quinine to Qinghaosu
Author: Irwin W. Sherman
The book reviews the history of antimalarial medicines and explains the hurdles that
lie ahead in the discovery and development of effective treatments and control strategies.
It also provides new perspectives on the creative process of drug discovery as well as
the challenges of overcoming drug resistance. This book will help microbiologists,
parasitologists, pharmacologists, medicinal chemists, biochemists, physicians, and drug
researchers better understand what has been done and what still needs to be done in
the battle against malaria. Its clear, conversational style will also appeal to readers
with a limited background in chemistry and biology.

be used. Two sections of therapy follow: the first
outlines the standard accepted modes of treatment,
and the second focuses on patients who fail to
respond to the medication prescribed, or who
respond and then become symptomatic again after
the treatment has ended.

This work examines the pathogenesis of human pulmonary tuberculosis in all of its stages, with a
primary focus on the experimental rabbit model. Tuberculosis in the rabbit model most closely
resembles that found in humans, including caseous necrosis, liquefaction, and cavity formation with
bronchial spread of the disease. Other animal models—mouse, guinea pig, and monkey—are compared with the rabbit and human models.
Authored by an experienced and noted expert in the field, Pathogenesis of Human Pulmonary
Tuberculosis reviews the interplay of delayed-type hypersensitivity and cell-mediated immunity,
clearly showing how both are needed to control the growth of the tubercle bacillus and how
antibodies contribute to these cellular immune responses. The pathology and structure of tuberculous lesions are thoroughly investigated. Other significant topics discussed include the histochemistry of macrophage activation; the roles of various cytokines; the effects of glucocorticoids,
estrogens, thyroid hormones, and irradiation on the disease; and principles of immunization
against tuberculosis, including vaccine development. The final chapter describes many areas in
which future research could contribute to our knowledge, treatment, and control of this disease.
The text is complemented by high-quality illustrations of both human and rabbit disease.

Pathogenesis of Human Pulmonary Tuberculosis updates and revises the ground-breaking work of Max
B. Lurie, summarizing the combined 80 years of research by Drs. Lurie and Dannenberg. The
book offers a comprehensive resource for clinicians, public health investigators, and laboratory
researchers in tuberculosis and immunology.
About the Author
Dr. Arthur M. Dannenberg, Jr., a professor at Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions, has spent his
55-year research career unraveling the intricacies of the pathogenesis of tuberculosis in the rabbit model. He received his M.D. from Harvard Medical School in 1947 and Ph.D. in Microbiology
(Immunology) from the University of Pennsylvania in 1952 under Max B. Lurie, who at that time
was the foremost experimental pathologist of this disease. Lurie outlined the research course
that Dr. Dannenberg has pursued for the rest of his life.

From the Series Editor’s Foreword
“This provides the current state of the science for microbial source tracking, especially
as it relates to identifying sources of waterborne microbes of fecal origin. It not only
addresses current methods used for identification of sources of fecal contamination but
also provides perspectives on the assumptions and limitations of tracking approaches and
the challenges faced by scientists conducting tracking studies. In addition, there is an
attempt to gaze into the future, providing a look at how emerging molecular and genomic
techniques will advance the field of microbial source tracking. This is a ‘must have’
resource for anyone interested in tracking microbes to their origin.”

ABOUT THE BOOK
HEITMAN | FILLER | EDWARDS | MITCHELL
Molecular Principles of Fungal Pathogenesis presents readers with an up-to-date
compendium of research in the field of medical mycology. This new volume measures the impact of genome projects, genetics, and molecular
biology on the understanding of a diverse group of pathogenic fungi and
explores the potential impact of vaccines and new therapeutic approaches
to treatment. It will serve as a valuable resource for students, fellows,
instructors, researchers, specialists, clinicians, and anyone interested in the
general fields of mycology and microbial pathogenesis.
Divided into five sections, the book provides readers with a broad
overview of pathogenic fungi, including ascomycetes, basidiomycetes,
zygomycetes, and both rare and common infections. A cluster of chapters
focuses on immunological aspects of infection involving innate, humoral,
and cell-mediated immunity. The remaining chapters of Molecular Principles
of Fungal Pathogenesis feature comprehensive coverage of everything from
general principles to specific pathogens, genomics, and vaccine development. An in-depth analysis of the host-pathogen relationship is offered,
and future directions are contemplated.

Genome Plasticity and Infectious Diseases
The genome plasticity of microbial pathogens represents a significant hurdle in the development
of effective vaccines and therapeutic interventions. Genome Plasticity and Infectious Diseases
addresses the great clinical need to identify genetic variations within hosts that either improve
resistance or increase susceptibility to infectious pathogens.
This comprehensive book introduces the rapidly evolving field of genome plasticity, presents the
most current research findings, and explores the relevance of these findings to infection and infection
control. Written by an international, interdisciplinary team of leading experts, it offers perspectives
from the fields of microbiology, mycology, virology, parasitology, and infectious diseases.

A springboard for developing new approaches to understanding,
preventing, and treating picornaviral diseases. • Examines the most current breakthroughs as well as the challenges that
lie ahead in picornavirus research; encapsulates current knowledge of
the molecular biology, evolution, and pathogenesis of this large family
of viruses; and, examines the diseases that these viruses cause and
the latest vaccines and antiviral drugs to prevent and control those
diseases.
• Explores the structural and mechanistic bases of picornavirus replication, highlighting new insights about the host cell interactions needed for
virus growth; and, illustrates how the regular occurrence of mutations,
typical of viruses with RNA as genetic material, generates the quasispecies dynamics that underlie viral fitness.
• Focuses on picornaviruses that cause disease, examining pathogenicity
and innate and acquired immune responses against infection as well as
the latest vaccine and antiviral drug strategies.
Enables students and professionals to develop a deep understanding of
fundamental virology by emphasizing principles and discussing viruses
organized by virus family.
• Examines individual virus families within the context of the Baltimore
classification system, a key unifying theme that allows readers to
assume basic facts about the replication strategy of a virus based on the
nature of its genome.
• Explores the various modes of virus infection and disease, and considers host defenses against microorganisms and viral countermeasures to
subvert those host defenses.
• Details the organization of the viral genome and its pattern of expression, with additional discussions covering viral structure, entry, assembly, release, and associated medical issues.

Fundamental Studies in Conservation Science
istoric and culturally important objects, like all materials, are vulnerable to
microbial attack. Over time, microorganisms can affect paint, wood, paper, glass,
textiles, metal, wax, stone, polymers, and coatings. Microbial deterioration of
heritage materials can be caused by the formation and growth of biofilms or by direct
attack by a variety of microorganisms, all of which may be difficult to correct without also
damaging the materials themselves. On the other hand, microbial processes can also be
adapted to conserve and even restore heritage materials, pointing to the complex nature
of microbial interactions with these irreplaceable materials.
Editors: Ralph Mitchell, Harvard School of Engineering and Applied
Sciences; Christopher J. McNamara, Harvard School of Public Health
Ideal for anyone concerned with recognizing and dealing with microbial
deterioration of heritage materials.
• Provides a unique, single overview of the seminal literature in conservation microbiology.
• Presents the current state of the art along with a synthesis of the major
developments over the years.
• Offers conservation scientists and conservators an inclusive view of
the heritage conservation field plus extensive resources for further
investigation.
Cultural Heritage Microbiology assembles over twenty scientific papers published during the
past two decades, each presenting a major advance in some facet of this complex field.
These seminal articles, by a wide range of international experts, are grouped by the historic
material affected. Each section is introduced by a thorough review, written for this volume,
which serves to introduce and synthesize these past studies and to combine them with
the latest cutting-edge findings to present the most current state of the field. Extensive
references in every chapter and article offer valuable resources for further investigation.
Cultural Heritage Microbiology is ideal for anyone concerned with recognizing and dealing
with microbial deterioration of heritage materials. Professionals and students in microbiology, conservation science, archaeology, fine arts, architecture, museum conservation, and
other fields will find here the most current knowledge and approaches to preserving
cultural heritage objects for generations to come.
