Overview

This comprehensive first-edition textbook offers an integrative treatment of Brazilian tropical infectious disease for students, clinicians, researchers and public-health professionals. Across nineteen chapters and more than nine hundred pages, it moves from the conceptual foundations of tropical medicine, through the ecology of Brazilian biomes and the biology of vectors, to systematic treatments of the major pathogen groups, clinical syndromes, diagnostic approaches, and therapeutic strategies. Later chapters address prevention and control, health systems and economics, climate change and emerging threats, research and innovation, ethics and equity, and the lessons drawn from careful study of specific outbreaks and programmes.
