One of the greatest public health achievements during the 20th
century was the dramatic reduction in the incidence of infectious
diseases due to the development of improved hygiene, vaccines, and
antimicrobial agents. However, new infectious diseases are emerging
and bacteria-induced illnesses - such as tuberculosis, whooping
cough, and typhoid fever - are still a major cause of global
mortality. In recent decades, the development of molecular biology
and genetic tools has led to extensive studies on the molecular and
cellular aspects of the virulence properties of pathogenic
bacteria. In this book, a group of distinguished scientists from
eight different countries and three continents, under the expert
guidance of the editors Camille Locht and Michel Simonet, overview
the molecular and cellular mechanisms of bacterial pathogenesis.
The 15 chapters are organized into five sections: a) approaches to
the study of bacterial pathogenesis; b) bacterial adhesion to the
cell surface and extracellular matrix of host tissues; c) poisoning
the host by toxins; d) cellular invasion by bacterial pathogens;
and e) bacterial evasion of host defenses. The book comprehensively
describe the most relevant and up-to-date information on pathogenic
features across the bacterial world. Aimed at the entire scientific
community from students to senior scientists and physicians,
Bacterial Pathogenesis is relevant to a broad range of people
interested in the mechanisms of bacterial infectious diseases and
is a recommended text for all microbiology laboratories.
"Whistleblowing" steht im letzten Jahrzehnt vermehrt als Schlagwort
fur den Streit um die rechtliche Einordnung von
Arbeitnehmeranzeigen im deutschen und internationalen Arbeitsrecht.
In den USA grundsatzlich positiv bewertet, wird Whistleblowing in
Deutschland oftmals vorschnell als "verpfeifen" verkannt, ohne dass
dabei auf die unterschiedlichen Erscheinungsformen eingegangen
wird. Die Arbeit zeigt die positiven und negativen Eigenschaften
des externen und internen Whistleblowings aus der Sicht von
Wirtschaftsunternehmen auf. Im Zuge der Untersuchung wird die
deutsche Rechtssprechung und Fachliteratur analysiert und bewertet.
Zudem zeigt der Autor auf, inwiefern Wirtschaftunternehmen in
Deutschland ein internes Whistleblowingsystem rechtskonform und
effektiv implementieren konnen.
