Levy 1997 Over the last 50 years, the rapid increase in the use of antibiotics, not only in people, but also in animal husbandry and agriculture, has delivered a selection unprecedented in the history of evolution. Consequently, society is facing one of its gravest public health problems-the emergence of infectious bacteria with resistance to many, and in some cases all, available antibiotics. This book brings together a multidisciplinary group of experts to discuss this problem. It begins by examining the origCiba Foundation symposium ;207.Drug resistance in microorganismsCongressesDrug resistance in microorganisms616.01616.014616/.01Chadwick Derek91632Goode Jamie283336MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910840664703321Antibiotic resistance4137452UNINA
