 Description:

Livestock & Poultry Infectious Diseases. This is the first edition of a classic textbook on Animal Diseases of Livestock and Poultry. It prevents infections caused by all sorts of pathogen, including prion ones. Provided the grat advances made recently in our understanding of the pathogenesis of infectious diseases, the molecular pathways involved were illuminated. This book is intended for graduate and postgraduate students, but it will be equally useful to teach population, field veterinarians, disease diagnostics, wildlife practitioners, and trained farmers. To foster comprehension, all chapters contain a short introductory overview, immune response elements for the pathogen, and the host reaction. A distinctive characteristic of the book is that major portions of each chapter were written of bold letters for a better interpretation of the subject matter. Comparative examples of human diseases were also addressed side by side, where applicable, explaining the zoonotic impacts. The book will therefore also act as a helpful reference for medical workers.
