Antimicrobial Resistance cover

In the pursuit of tackling the menace of antimicrobial resistance, this volume was compiled with contributions from eminent scientists of a variety of fields. As the drivers of antimicrobial resistance are multifarious, the volume illustrates the prevalence of resistance among microbes of human and animal origin, various perspectives in the resistance flux with modern agricultural practices, distribution of resistance genes in the environment and regulatory aspects of antimicrobial resistance. The book gives a better understanding to analyse the present scenario of antimicrobial resistance, interpret the trends and identify the strategies to prevent or control the menace. It will be a source of inspiration to the leading drug developers and can also serve as a vehicle for the elucidation of national policy guidelines.
