Description and Table of Contents

Description

This edition has been rewritten and expanded, so that it is now suitable as a source of information for microbiologists, clinical pharmacologists and infectious disease physicians. The first part deals with drugs and the second with drug treatment of different groups of diseases. The second section has been expanded to reflect advances in drug therapy and specialist contributors add their expertise.
