The two volumes included in Antimicrobial Drug Resistance, Second
Edition is an updated, comprehensive and multidisciplinary
reference covering the area of antimicrobial drug resistance in
bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites from basic science,
clinical, and epidemiological perspectives. This newly revised
compendium reviews the most current research and development on
drug resistance while still providing the information in the
accessible format of the first edition. The first volume,
Antimicrobial Drug Resistance: Mechanisms of Drug Resistance, is
dedicated to the biological basis of drug resistance and effective
avenues for drug development. With the emergence of more
drug-resistant organisms, the approach to dealing with the drug
resistance problem must include the research of different aspects
of the mechanisms of bacterial resistance and the dissemination of
resistance genes as well as research utilizing new genomic
information. These approaches will permit the design of novel
strategies to develop new antibiotics and preserve the
effectiveness of those currently available. The second volume,
Antimicrobial Drug Resistance: Clinical and Epidemiological
Aspects, is devoted to the clinical aspects of drug resistance.
Although there is evidence that restricted use of a specific
antibiotic can be followed by a decrease in drug resistance to that
agent, drug resistance control is not easily achieved. Thus, the
infectious diseases physician requires input from the clinical
microbiologist, antimicrobial stewardship personnel, and infection
control specialist to make informed choices for the effective
management of various strains of drug-resistant pathogens in
individual patients. This 2-volume set is an important reference
for students in microbiology, infectious diseases physicians,
medical students, basic scientists, drug development researchers,
microbiologists, epidemiologists, and public health practitioners.
