One Health refers to an interdisciplinary approach to solving
complex problems at the interface of human and animal health and
the wider ecosystem. It represents an integrated and collaborative
approach and addresses diverse issues such as the detection and
management of emerging and re-emerging infectious and
non-infectious diseases, food and water security, food hygiene and
global trade. Many complex problems that we currently face must
consider anthropogenic factors as well as climate change,
environmental impact, international collaboration, tourism, the
human-animal bond, economics, plant health and myriad other
factors. This book discusses complex concepts in One Health such as
preparedness planning, national level governance, inter-agency
co-operation, climate change, human activity in sensitive
ecosystems, the global food trade and food safety, antimicrobial
resistance, surveillance, and communication from policy level to
practical application.The book uses real-world case studies from
different geographical regions ranging from Asia to the Arctic,
different environments from the jungle to the oceans, and different
species including bees, fish, domestic and wild animals and humans.
The cases are prepared by experts with a diverse range of
experience and provide a unique and fascinating on-the-ground
approach to One Health topics in practice. One Health Case Studies
is an ideal resource for students and practitioners in veterinary
medicine, human medicine, public health, agriculture, wildlife
management, ecosystem health and environmental management.
