The gratifYing response to the first edition of Tuberculosis has
prompted this revision. There are many important changes
incorporated into this edition, including the dramatic effect of
AIDS on the incidence and clinical mani festations of mycobacterial
infection, new developments in epidemiology and bacteriology, and
thoroughly updated therapeutic recommendations and principles of
prophylaxis. The chapters that deal with clinical manifestations of
tuberculosis have also been updated and include important and
clinically applicable information on manifestations of tuberculosis
in both the normal and immunocomprom ised host. As with the first
edition, it is hoped that this text will continue to represent a
definitive resource for both the basic scientist and the clinician
who deal with the prevention and treatment of mycobacterial
infection. II Preface to the First Edition We have just witnessed
the lOOth anniversary of Koch's discovery of the tubercle bacillus.
This event did not end the centuries-long saga of tuber culosis,
however; it was but one major step in the ongoing struggle to un
derstand and combat this disease. Tuberculosis is very much with us
today, and its clinical manifestations and principles of treatment
must be understood by both the primary care physician and the
specialist. This monograph covers all aspects of tuberculosis in a
single volume. It is divided into three parts, covering,
respectively, general considerations, clin ical manifestations, and
atypical mycobacterial infection."
