Case studies from China, Pakistan, Nigeria, Indonesia, and other frontline countries demonstrate a wealth of information on clinical, cultural, socioeconomic, and other relevant factors. This compilation provides a valuable resource for creating successful intervention and prevention strategies. State-of-the-science snapshots pinpoint where short- and long-term initiatives stand today, from early detection and vaccination programs to new genetic technologies and drug therapies. This diverse group of perspectives and approaches offers innovative paths toward control and realistic odds for containing the threat, especially in the face of current co-epidemics and new drug-resistant strains.Among the topics in the Handbook:Diagnosis of tuberculosis: current pipeline, unmet needs, and new developmentsConcurrence of tuberculosis and other major diseasesThe tuberculosis outbreak response, investigation, and controlThe promise of new TB vaccinesDNA fingerprinting of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: a rich source of fundamental and daily applicable knowledgeGlobal tuberculosis surveillanceThe Handbook of Global Tuberculosis Control is urgent reading for leadership and staff of non-governmental organizations, government agencies, academic institutions, research centers, hospitals, and potentially businesses with interests in tuberculosis control.

Описание: This study examines representations of tuberculosis in Victorian fiction, analyzing consumptive characters for insights into how society viewed this `dread disease` and its sufferers, and revealing the myths which surrounded this socially significant illness. It displays, also, how popular assumptions were used as diagnostic tools by a frustrated medical profession.
