Contents:

An introduction to bacterial diseases -- Bacterial cell biology -- Molecular analysis of bacterial virulence mechanisms -- Communication in infection -- The mucosal surface: the front line of antibacterial defence -- Immune defences against bacteria -- Bacterial adhesion as a virulence mechanism -- Bacterial invasion as a virulence mechanism -- Bacterial exotoxins -- Bacterial evasion of host defence mechanisms -- Bacteria in human health and disease: the future?

Summary: "This textbook describes, from the standpoint of human bacterial disease, the molecular and cellular interactions that occur between ourselves and the bacteria that live with us and introduces the reader to the latest techniques being used to unravel bacteria-host interactions." "Bacterial Disease Mechanisms is a core textbook for students taking courses in Microbiology, Medical Microbiology, Biotechnology and Pathology and will be of interest to those taking courses in Biology, Cell Biology, Molecular Biology, Medicine and Biochemistry."
