This book focuses on waterborne pathogens and significant diseases
occurring along major rivers around the globe, including key
examples like the Amazonas, Mekong River and Nile. Written by
leading international experts, it offers unique insights into local
riverine infection risks in times of global warming, and addressing
these through advances in diagnosis, health management and the
development of simple but effective control measures. It also sheds
light on why former societies collapsed due to transmitted diseases
during periods of climate change, droughts and floods, to help
establish effective preventive measures for the future. The book
appeals to a wide readership, from scientists in the field of
parasitology, infectious diseases and epidemiology, to healthcare
managers and general readers with an interest in pathogen spread
along the largest rivers on earth. It particularly highlights past
and current control mechanisms in times of global warming and
assesses potential future health hazards.
