This unique volume presents an up-to-date review of one of the
world's major health problems diseases caused by the four dengue
viruses. It begins with an insightful story of the origin of dengue
disease outbreaks, including the emergence of severe and fatal
dengue hemorrhagic fever. The nature, structure and biology of the
four dengue viruses are described, and a major portion of the book
is focused on the epidemiology of dengue as a mosquito-borne
disease. This is complemented by critiques of existing mosquito
control programs by three groups of outstanding authorities. The
strongest element of the volume is its comprehensive description of
the current understanding of dengue disease pathogenesis, followed
by an analysis of the pros and cons of five of the most
controversial areas in the field: the WHO DEF case definition,
secondary dengue infections, virulent viruses, the role of abnormal
T cells and autoimmunity.
