Aus den Rezensionen: "... In dem Buch werden von insgesamt 30 Autorinnen (Mikrobiologen und Infektiologen) in hervorragenden Ubersichtsartikeln all die genannten Probleme dargestellt. Die Literaturangaben sind auf dem neuesten Stand. Fur alle die sich mit Infektionserkrankungen hier und in armen Landern beschaftigen ist das Buch ein Muss und kann uneingeschrankt empfohlen werden."
