Produktbeschreibung

Resistance and Evolution explores the growing crisis of antibiotic resistance, a major threat to global health. It examines how bacteria evolve to overcome antibiotics through natural selection, turning into formidable adversaries. Understanding the evolution of resistance is crucial for developing effective strategies to combat it, especially as our misuse of antibiotics accelerates this process.

The book delves into resistance mechanisms like enzymatic degradation and horizontal gene transfer, illustrating how bacteria share and acquire resistance. It emphasizes the evolutionary pathways involved, revealing how these mechanisms lead to the spread of resistance genes.

Antibiotic resistance is presented as an inevitable consequence of evolution driven by antibiotic use, highlighting the need for antimicrobial stewardship and alternative therapies.

The book progresses from basic concepts of bacterial genetics to detailed mechanisms of resistance and practical strategies for combating it. By connecting microbiology, public health, and pharmacology, Resistance and Evolution provides a comprehensive view, offering insights for students, researchers, and healthcare professionals interested in understanding and addressing this complex issue.
