Fully reviewed and revised for its second edition, the Oxford Handbook of Infectious Diseases and Microbiology maintains its position as the must-have guide to all aspects of infectious diseases and microbiology. Reflecting the current approach to joint postgraduate training programmes, the handbook takes an integrated approach to both subjects. It covers the basic principles of bacteriology and virology, along with specific guidance on individual diseases and conditions, all in the accessible Oxford Handbook style. Now including new topics on important subjects such as microbiology specimen collection, commonly used media, molecular diagnostics, and antimicrobials in pregnancy, as well as incorporating new guidelines from WHO, NICE, and BASHH among others, this handbook ensures that the informaiton you need is accessible, clear, and easy-to-understand.Practical and comprehensive, this handbook includes coverage of National Frameworks and current legislation, together with information on topical issues such as bioterrorism and preventative medicine. Fully reviewed by specialist senior readers, and with useful links to up-to-date clinical information and online resources, this is an important addition to the Oxford Handbook Series.

Fully reviewed and revised for its third edition, the Oxford Handbook of Infectious Diseases and Microbiology remains the invaluable guide to all aspects of infectious diseases and microbiology. Reflecting the current approach to joint postgraduate training programmes, the handbook takes an integrated approach to both subjects. It covers the basic principles of bacteriology and virology, along with specific guidance on individual diseases and conditions, all in the accessible Oxford Handbook style.The chapters have been expanded to include new developments that reflect the fast-changing field of infectious diseases and their managements, including novel pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2 and updated treatments for infections such as Hepatitis C. Diagnostic technologies such as whole-genome sequence based approaches are covered in greater detail, and the increased role of antimicrobial stewardship in the management of antiviral and antifungal prescribing has been substantially reviewed since the previous edition. Practical and comprehensive, this handbook includes coverage of current legislation and guidelines, as well as substantial changes to species nomenclature. Fully reviewed by specialist senior clinicians, and with useful links to up-to-date clinical information and online resources, this title remains a cornerstone for all infection trainees, those working in laboratory settings, and candidates preparing for infection examinations such as CICE and FRCPath.

Infectious diseases remain a predominant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Clinicians are facing new challenges such as emerging infections related to our global society and the increase in immunocompromised hosts. Drug resistance among bacterial and fungal isolates demands a working knowledge of common microbiologic testing and antimicrobial activity profiles. This cutting-edge, point-of-care handbook distills the explosion of information in the field of infectious diseases for the busy clinician and trainee. Provided in a concise, accessible format, the Oxford American Handbook of Infectious Diseases comprehensively covers all areas of this expanding field, making it easily available at the clinician's fingertips.
