An up-to-date examination of the evolution of microbial pathogenesis. – Provides comprehensive coverage with a dual focus on pathogenesis and methods used to study evolution. – Emphasizes broad themes of evolution and examines the process of studying evolution. – Provides examples of how problems that are common to various pathogens have been solved by evolution. – Serves as a valuable reference for laboratory directors, postdoctoral fellows, and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students.
