This ambitious reference surveys worldwide efforts at controlling
the spread of tuberculosis, with special emphasis on the developing
world. Case studies from China, Pakistan, Nigeria, Indonesia, and
other frontline countries demonstrate a wealth of information on
clinical, cultural, socioeconomic, and other relevant factors. This
compilation provides a valuable resource for creating successful
intervention and prevention strategies. State-of-the-science
snapshots pinpoint where short- and long-term initiatives stand
today, from early detection and vaccination programs to new genetic
technologies and drug therapies. This diverse group of perspectives
and approaches offers innovative paths toward control and realistic
odds for containing the threat, especially in the face of current
co-epidemics and new drug-resistant strains. Among the topics in
the Handbook: Diagnosis of tuberculosis: current pipeline, unmet
needs, and new developments Concurrence of tuberculosis and other
major diseases The tuberculosis outbreak response, investigation,
and control The promise of new TB vaccines DNA fingerprinting of
Mycobacterium tuberculosis: a rich source of fundamental and daily
applicable knowledge Global tuberculosis surveillance The Handbook
of Global Tuberculosis Control is urgent reading for leadership and
staff of non-governmental organizations, government agencies,
academic institutions, research centers, hospitals, and potentially
businesses with interests in tuberculosis control. Additionally,
the book's focus on TB in developing countries will attract a wider
audience of practitioners, particularly those working in the
broader fields of global public health, epidemiology, international
development, and the socioeconomics of infectious diseases.
