What explains the constant emergence of infectious diseases? What are the related challenges? In five chapters, experts from different scientific fields analyse the ecological, social, institutional and political dynamics associated with emerging infectious diseases. This book discusses how the concepts, scientific results and action plans of international or governmental organizations are constructed and coordinated. In clear straightforward language, this book explores the continuities and discontinuities that occur with emerging infectious diseases, both in terms of collective action and in our relationship to the biological world.Matière à débattre et DéciderPathologybicsschealthbiologyecologycontaminationpreventionepidemiologyvirusPathologyMorand Sergeedt1075722Figuié MurieledtMorand SergeothFiguié MurielothMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910350198503321Emergence of infectious diseases : Risks and issues for societies3358893UNINA
