Infectious Diseases and Arthropods de Jerome Goddard

Infectious Diseases and Arthropods: Infectious Disease

Autor Jerome Goddard
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 dec 2018
With the exception of a few tropical medicine schools worldwide, current medical education programs include almost zero discussion of the interface between infectious diseases and entomology.  That is why this book was initially published in the first edition almost 17 years ago. The third edition of this valuable infectious disease entomology book updates all existing chapters with the newest scientific developments described in the medical and entomological literature in addition to covering 10 entirely new topics not addressed in previous editions, which include:  
·         arthropod identification controversies
·         early beginnings of public health and disease control
·         red-meat allergy
·         updates on vaccine development for dengue and malaria
·         discussion of Chikungunya and Zika viruses
·         American Boutonnneuse Fever ·         the newest controversies in Lyme disease
·         recent findings of viruses in ticks
·         bed bug bite reactions
·         Morgellons disease (an imaginary infectious disease)

Notă biografică

Jerome Goddard, Ph.D. is a medical entomologist currently located at Mississippi State University who is known for research on a number of medically important arthropods, most notably ticks, mosquitoes, and bed bugs. Prior to coming to Mississippi State, Dr. Goddard was an Air Force medical entomologist for 3 years and then State Medical Entomologist for the Mississippi Department of Health for 20 years. After Hurricane Katrina (2005), Dr. Goddard was the health department official responsible for the mosquito and vector control program along the Mississippi Gulf Coast. He is the author of over 200 scientific articles and a medical textbook used by physicians, which won "Highly Commended" in 2003 in the British Medical Association's Best Medical Book of the Year competition. Over the last two decades, Dr. Goddard has served as an educational resource concerning medically-important arthropods to a U.S. Congressional Committee, in various newspapers and magazines such as Reader's Digest, and on television programs such as The Learning Channel ("Living with Bugs") and the Colbert Report.

Recenzii

From the reviews of the second edition:“In this book Jerome Goddard, a medical entomologist, gives a brief summary of many … conditions and the vectors that transmit them. … I think this is a useful book … and I shall use it as a quick reference source when I need to refresh my memory on many of the conditions described. It is also readable and accessible for the non-specialist, potentially suiting clinicians, nurse specialists, and environmental health practitioners.” (Ian F. Burgess, Public Health, Vol. 123, September/October, 2009)“Sections dealing with differential diagnosis for some infections, and treatment is dealt with briefly; too briefly to be useful to physicians … . ‘to provide physicians as well as entomologists and other interested parties with a reference on the biological and entomological aspects of infectious diseases’. … interests of most physicians and entomologists. … I applaud the original articles as a means of informing a more general audience of physicians and entomologists … this book meets it objectives as a work of reference.” (Harold Townson, Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, Vol. 103, October, 2009)
