The most widely recognized sourcebook on infectious diseases provides detailed, accurate, informative text for public health workers in official and voluntary health agencies, including those serving in the armed forces and other governmental agencies, and for all students of medicine. Each listing is easy to read and includes identification, infectious agent, occurrence, mode of transmission, incubation period, susceptibility and resistance. This 19th edition sticks to a tried and tested structure, but with every chapter updated by international experts at both CDC and WHO, priority has been given to ensuring global relevance New disease variants have been included and some chapters have been fundamentally reworked. The 19th edition is a timely update to a milestone reference work that ensures the relevance and usefulness to every public health professional around the world.

Summary: Excellent Source Book
Comment: I have multiple books on infectious disease which cover the topic in great detail. These books are very useful when intricate detail is needed.However, the "Control of Communicable Diseases Manual" is a book that in its concise format is extremely valuable when you need to get a quick, yet comprehensive overview of a particular disease.
I highly recommend this volume.

Summary: Easy to use without a PHD
Comment: I use this book to do Medical Missionary work throughout Central America, especially Haiti, where I usually find something I've never seen before and certainly have never treated. It is very user friendly and knowledgeable.
