Hot Topics in Infection and Immunity in Children IV

Fast becoming a key text for pediatricians, this fourth outing for the Hot Topics series is once again culled from lectures given at the annual course on the subject at Keble College, Oxford. Quite simply, the series of books, of which this is the fourth, is the first port of call for those who need to keep on top of the subject. With world-leading researchers as editors, the series has become a valuable addition to the sum of knowledge in this specialism and a resource for anyone dealing with infectious diseases in children. Pediatric infectious diseases is now a recognized specialty in Europe with established training programs and training centers, overseen by the European Society for Pediatric Infectious Diseases. This book and the course that precedes each edition will continue to play useful parts in the development and knowledge of specialists throughout the continent and beyond.
