This book provides comprehensive knowledge on diseases in livesk that are caused by viruses, parasites and bacteria. Emerging and reemerging pathogens are presented in detail for various animal groups and indepth insights into pathogenesis and epidemiology will be provided for each of them. In addition, stateoftheart treatment possibilities, control measures as well as vaccination strategies are discussed. The recent years have witnessed a sharp increase in the number of emerging and reemerging infectious diseases of livesk and many of these, including Influenza, Corona and Hanta are of public health importance. The reasons for this development are manifold:changes in the climate, life cycle of vectors and increased global travel.

Recent progress in diagnosis and management of emerging infectious diseases are also topic of this book.
