Though cholera is an ancient disease, its perennial occurrence in
several parts of the world has attracted many researches to find
ways and means to combat the disease. The prevailing seventh
pandemic cholera is dominating since 1961, but the dimension of the
disease has taken several silhouettes, as the genetic structure and
functions of the Vibrio cholerae has changed to a great extent.
Several recent studies have shown that transformation of the
pathogen at the molecular level has ameliorated several cholera
outbreaks and epidemics of with successive new clones of V.
cholerae. This comprehensive compilation, written by eminent
international researchers reviews the epidemiology of cholera in
Africa, Asia, Russia and Latin Americas. The other chapters
contributed by acclaimed authors cover various aspects on
evolution, polysaccaharide biosynthesis, SXT element, integrons,
small molecule signalling systems, flagellar synthesis, filamentous
phages, pathogenic role of proteases and hemolysin, and other
putative virulence factors. In addition, ecology of V. cholerae and
management of cholera were also discussed in detail. This book will
be good source of information to all researchers with interests in
infectious diseases, microbiology and molecular biology.
