Fully reviewed and revised for its third edition, the Oxford Handbook of Infectious Diseases and Microbiology remains the invaluable guide to all aspects of infectious diseases and microbiology. Reflecting the current approach to joint postgraduate training programmes, the handbook takes an integrated approach to both subjects. It covers the basic principles of bacteriology and virology, along with specific guidance on individual diseases and conditions, all in the accessible Oxford Handbook style.

The chapters have been expanded to include new developments that reflect the fast-changing field of infectious diseases and their managements, including novel pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2 and updated treatments for infections such as Hepatitis C. Diagnostic technologies such as whole-genome sequence based approaches are covered in greater detail, and the increased role of antimicrobial stewardship in the management of antiviral and antifungal prescribing has been substantially reviewed since the previous edition.

Practical and comprehensive, this handbook includes coverage of current legislation and guidelines, as well as substantial changes to species nomenclature. Fully reviewed by specialist senior clinicians, and with useful links to up-to-date clinical information and online resources, this title remains a cornerstone for all infection trainees, those working in laboratory settings, and candidates preparing for infection examinations such as CICE and FRCPath.

Ed trained in medicine in Cambridge, infectious disease in Oxford and South Africa, and has a PhD in the immunology of dengue fever. He has worked as a consultant in Infectious Disease in Birmingham and is now Clinical Lead for Infectious Disease in Bristol. Fiona trained in medicine in Cambridge and Oxford, followed by junior doctor jobs in London. She was a PHE SpR in microbiology and completed a PhD in Salmonella genomics, through Imperial College and the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute. She is a Fellow of the Royal Colleges of Physicians and Pathologists, and lead microbiology examiner for FRCPath I / combined infection certificate. She is a College Lecturer / Official Fellow at Girton College and recently undertook a Postgraduate Certificate in Medical Education. She is now a SubDean at the Cambridge Clinical School, and continues as a Consultant Microbiologist at Addenbrookes Hospital.
