Infectious disease accounts for more death and disability worldwide
than either noninfectious disease or injury. This book contains a
number of different quantitative approaches to understanding the
patterns of such diseases in populations, and the design of control
strategies to lessen their effect. The papers are written by
experts with varied mathematical expertise and involvement in
biological, medical and social sciences. The volume increases
interaction between specialties by describing research on many
infectious diseases that affect humans, including viral diseases,
such as measles and AIDS, and tropical parasitic infections.
Sections deal with problems relating to transmissible diseases with
long development times (such as AIDS); vaccination strategies; the
consequences of treatment interventions; the dynamics of immunity;
heterogeneity of populations; and prediction. On each topic, the
editors have chosen papers that bring together contrasting
approaches via the development of theoretical results, the use of
relevant knowledge from applied fields, and the analysis of data.
