CONTROL OF COMMUNICABLE DISEASES IN MAN.

Mine is the fourteenth edition from 1985. I’m sure it’s been updated
several times by now. Lots of good technical info on how to prevent,
control and treat communicable diseases. Copyright 1985. ISBN
#0-87553-130-X. The American Public Health Association, 1015 Fifteenth St
NW, Washington DC 20005. I got my copy when I worked for a county health
dept years ago. Might be able to buy or order it at a medical book store
or write the group above.

I just did a search on Amazon.com and they say they have the book in stock.
It was last updated in 1995 (16 th edition) and is available in paperback,
and on CD rom. There’s even a Spanish language version available. There
is a hardcover version as well, but they’ve got it listed as “hard to get”.

If you look for it use the editor’s last name “Benenson” rather than the
book title to search with. The last edition out changed the title slightly
so a search on the title won’t turn up the latest version. I found it when
the last version I could find by doing a title search was from 1990. I
knew there had to be a more recent update so tried searching using the
editor’s name and turned it up.

Most definitely a worthwhile book if infectious disease is something you’re
concerned about.
