Thanks to new technologies and advances in epidemiology, ecology, and other biological and social sciences, great progress has been made regarding these diseases since the first edition was published in 1977. This edition is the first to be published as three volumes. The first includes bacterioses and mycoses; the second, chlamydioses, rickettsioses, and viroses; and the third, parasitic zoonoses.
