Vibrio cholerae and cholera : molecular to global perspectives

edited by I. Kaye Wachsmuth, Paul A. Blake, Ørjan Olsvik

THE RETURN OF AN ANCIENT DISEASE With the re-emergence and rapid spread of cholera in Latin America after an absence of 100 years, there is a renewed interest and concern about this ancient disease. This new book addresses the arrival of the 7th pandemic in the Western Hemisphere and its increased importance in Africa and Asia during the past two years. The research also contrasts the pandemic with low-level endemic
