Description

After thirty five years, Mandell, Douglas, and Bennetts Principles and Practice of Infectious Diseases, 8th Edition is still the reference of choice for comprehensive, global guidance on diagnosing and treating the most challenging infectious diseases. Drs. John E. Bennett and Raphael Dolin along with new editorial team member Dr. Martin Blaser have meticulously updated this latest edition to save you time and to ensure you have the latest clinical and scientific knowledge at your fingertips. With new chapters, expanded and updated coverage, increased worldwide perspectives, and many new contributors, Mandell, Douglas, and Bennetts Principles and Practice of Infectious Diseases, 8th Edition helps you identify and treat whatever infectious disease you see.

I highly recommend Mandell, Douglas, and Bennetts Principles and Practice of Infectious Diseases, together with the included ExpertConsult, the on-line version of the book that is a searchable source and is available to a variety of platforms. It is updated twice each year and is an excellent solution for health-care professionals to keep informed of the latest knowledge Reviewed by Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol, March 2015

..what an in depth textbook should be, a superb and vast, yet highly readable review of its topic. Reviewed by glycosmedia.com, Mar 2015

Principles and Practice of Infectious Diseases has many features and formats that make it a comprehensive, current, and clear source of information Reviewed by Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol, Feb 2015
