Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the first edition of Identification of Pathogenic Fungi, there has been incredible progress in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of fungal diseases: new methods of diagnosis have been introduced, and new antifungal agents have been licensed for use. However, these developments have been offset by the emergence of resistance to several classes of drugs, and an increase in infections caused by fungi with innate resistance to one or more classes. Identification of Pathogenic Fungi, Second Edition, assists in the identification of over 100 of the most significant organisms of medical importance. Each chapter is arranged so that the descriptions for similar organisms may be found on adjacent pages. Differential diagnosis details are given for each organism on the basis of both colonial appearance and microscopic characteristics for the organisms described. In this fully updated second edition, a new chapter on the identification of fungi in histopathological sections and smears has been added, while colour illustrations of cultures and microscopic structures have been included, and high quality, four colour digital images are incorporated throughout.

Book excerpt: Fungi can be harmful to global health, biodiversity and agriculture and they are responsible for life-threatening diseases, especially in individuals with a weakened immune system. Over the last decades, the number of invasive infections, mainly caused by fungi belonging to Candida, Cryptococcus, Aspergillus and Pneumocystis genera has increased and negatively affected the clinical outcomes of the patients. With regard to all these issues, this book focuses on the processes associated with fungal pathogenesis. The authors believe that this book will serve as a useful reference for consultations with specialists in the Mycology field since it contemplates the most important issues in the proposed area. The chapters are written by experts who actively contribute to international scientific literature. The editors also believe that the theme is a very attractive proposal and the compilation of interesting data will benefit readers in terms of identification, epidemiology, pathogenesis, and treatment of predominant fungal infections around the world. "The Book of Fungal Pathogens" contains 18 chapters, several pictures, diagrams, and tables that can be used in both undergraduate and postgraduate teaching as well as scientific lectures.
