In this edition, the authors have compiled a comprehensive overview of critical issues surrounding antifungal therapy.

This makes the Antifungal Therapy, Second Edition not only informative but also practical for day-to-day clinical use.

"This book succeeds overall as an important reference and a comprehensive review of the current state of antifungal therapy in humans. The up-to-date information makes it a useful resource for clinicians consulting for immunosuppressed patients with invasive mycoses. The scientific data presented and the clinical experience and insight of the expert authors on the use of newer antifungal drugs in the pediatric population in the last section will be
particularly useful in guiding practicing pediatricians in the care of their patients. Perhaps the last chapter is one of the most valuable of all, putting in perspective the mycobiome, which, as a part of the microbiome, plays a key role in health and disease."
