In this issue of Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, guest editor Dr. Robert P. Smith brings his considerable expertise to the topic of Lyme Disease and the Expanding Spectrum of Associated Tick-Borne Illness. With a primary focus on Lyme disease and its complications, the thorough reviews in this issue will also discuss the epidemiology, clinical presentations, diagnosis, treatment and outcomes of other infections transmitted by the black-legged tick in North America.
