Edited by Dubos in 1958, this comprehensive volume was a landmark publication that consolidated the latest research on bacterial and fungal infections affecting humans. Dubos, who later won the Nobel Prize for his pioneering work on antibiotics, assembled a team of leading experts to contribute to this authoritative reference. The book covers a wide range of topics, from the biology and pathogenesis of various infectious agents to clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment. It served as an invaluable resource for physicians, researchers, and students alike, providing a comprehensive understanding of these prevalent and often life-threatening infections. Despite its age, this copy remains a valuable addition to any collection focused on the history of microbiology, infectious diseases, or the development of modern medicine.
