Widely considered the premier text in pediatric infectious diseases, Feigin and Cherry's Textbook of Pediatric Infectious Diseases, 9th Edition, provides authoritative, up-to-date coverage of this rapidly changing field. Extensively revised by Drs. James Cherry, Sheldon L. Kaplan, Gail J. Demmler-Harrison, William J. Steinbach, Peter J. Hotez, and new editor John V. Williams, this two-volume reference delivers the information you need on epidemiology, public health, preventive medicine, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment, and much more. It serves as a reliable, everyday resource for practicing ID specialists, and an invaluable reference for medical students, residents, and fellows in ID, pediatricians and internists, and others who work with neonates, children, and adolescents or in public health.

Key Features

Discusses infectious diseases according to organ systems that may be affected, as well as individually by microorganisms, placing emphasis on clinical manifestations that may be related to the organism causing the disease
Provides detailed information regarding the best means to establish a diagnosis, explicit recommendations for therapy, and the most appropriate uses of diagnostic imaging
Includes expanded information on Q fever, antibiotic resistance and antibiotic agents, human coronaviruses, pox viruses, and infections in the compromised host, and contains new COVID-19 content across numerous chapters
Features a new chapter on antimicrobial stewardship, and new coverage of antivirals for pox viruses
Reflects today’s more aggressive infectious and antibiotic-resistant organisms as well as emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases
Contains hundreds of full-color images (many are new!), including clinical photos, radiographic images, drawings, charts, and graphs
Enhanced eBook version included with purchase. Your enhanced eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices. Additional digital ancillary content may publish up to 6 weeks following the publication date
