Infectious disease has always existed around both humans and animals. Ever since people began living in communities, disease could pass easily from one person to another. Often, only a few people become ill. When, however, the problem spreads outside a limited group, affecting a large number of people and lasting for some time, it is called an epidemic. Let’s go on the way with DK to find out anything you would like to know about EPIDEMICS.
Patophysiology of Disease - An Introduction to Clinical Medicine 2nd ED.
The book does an excellent job of integrating basic science concepts with clinical medicine. Each of the organ system chapters reviews the normal anatomy, physiology and histology, then follows with the pathophysiology, clinical findings, and pathology of the more commonly encountered disorders. Additionally there are chapters on genetic diseases, immune diseases and neoplasia which similarly link basic science principles with clinical disease entities. Each chapter contains periodic "checkpoint" questions which guide the reader to the most important concepts. Each chapter also ends with several case studies with questions and discussions, similar to those encountered on board examinations.
