publication

Author Information

Author(s): Stephen M. Ostroff

Primary Institution: Pennsylvania Department of Health

The book is a collection of essays on various aspects of infectious diseases rather than a comprehensive encyclopedia.

The book contains a variety of chapters on different infectious diseases but lacks a consistent format.
Some chapters are well-written and accessible, while others are less comprehensive.
It includes unique topics like archeological epidemiology and the intersection of infectious diseases and the arts.

This book is like a mixed bag of stories about germs and diseases, but it's not a complete guide like you might expect from an encyclopedia.

The book lacks a clear structure and is not comprehensive in its coverage of infectious diseases.
