Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology Series Editor-in-Chief: Robert A. Meyers Lester M. Shulman Editor Infectious Diseases Second Edition A Volume in the Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology, Second Edition Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology Series Editor-in-Chief RobertA.Meyers The Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology series (ESST) addresses the grand challenge for science and engineering today. It provides unprecedented, peer-reviewed coverage in more than 600 separate articles comprising 20 topical volumes, incorporating many updates from the first edition as well as new articles. ESSTestablishes a foundation for the many sustainability and policy evaluations being performed in institutions worldwide. An indispensable resource for scientistsandengineers indeveloping new technologies and for applying existing technologies to sustainability, the EncyclopediaofSustainabilityScienceandTechnologyseriesispresentedat theuniversityandprofessionallevelneededforscientists,engineers,andtheir studentstosupportrealprogressinsustainabilityscienceandtechnology.
