    Content: "Urban slum dwellers...especially in emerging-economy cities...are often poor, live in squalor, and suffer unnecessarily from disease, disability, premature death, and poor life expectancy. Yet living in a city can and should be healthy. Slum Health highlights why and how slums can be unhealthy, reveals that not all slums are equal in terms of the hazards and health issues faced by residents, and suggests how slum dwellers, scientists, and social movements can come together to make slum life safer, more just, and healthier. Editors Jason Corburn and Lee Riley argue that both new biologic and "street" science...or valuing professional and lay knowledge...are crucial for improving the well-being of the millions of urban poor living in slums."...Provided by publisher

    Content: Designed as both a textbook and a reference, this book outlines the principles, methods, and application of this new discipline of public health. Techniques used in the field of molecular biology have been recognized as critical tools in solving infectious disease problems. This introductory volume, distinguishing molecular epidemiology from taxonomy and phylogeny, will familiarize epidemiologists with molecular biology and molecular biologists with epidemiology, and presents vocabulary and concepts of both fields to infectious disease clinicians.
    Note: Principles and approaches -- Laboratory methods used for strain typing of pathogens: conventional and molecular techniques -- Laboratory methods used for strain typing pathogens: PCR-based strain typing methods -- Analysis of similarity and relatedness in molecular epidemiology -- Distinguishing epidemic and endemic occurrence of infectious diseases -- Stratification and refinement of data in epidemiologic investigations -- Distinguishing pathovars from nonpathovars: escherichia coli -- Distinguishing pathovars from nonpathovars: streptococcus pneumoniae -- Distinguishing pathovars from nonpathovars: helicobacter pylori -- Hospital infections: staphylococcus aureus -- Hospital infections: gram-negative bacteria -- Identifying pathogen's biologic determinants of disease transmission.

    Content: Urban slum dwellers — especially in emerging-economy countries — are often poor, live in squalor, and suffer unnecessarily from disease, disability, premature death, and reduced life expectancy. Yet living in a city can and should be healthy. Slum Health exposes how and why slums can be unhealthy; reveals that not all slums are equal in terms of the hazards and health issues faced by residents; and suggests how slum dwellers, scientists, and social movements can come together to make slum life safer, more just, and healthier. Editors Jason Corburn and Lee Riley argue that valuing both new biologic and “street” science — professional and lay knowledge — is crucial for improving the well-being of the millions of urban poor living in slums.
