A world-renowned Lyme
disease expert explains everything you need to know if you live, work,
or play in areas with the ticks that carry disease.
Once
restricted to small forested areas in the northeast and north-central
United States, Lyme disease is now a common infection in North America
and Europe. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that
more than 300,000 new cases occur each year in the United States.
Misunderstandings over symptoms and treatment increase the public's
concerns about the disease--which, if not properly treated, can become
chronic and debilitating.
An expert on tick-borne diseases, Alan
G. Barbour explains the course of illness that results from infection,
diagnosis and treatment options, and steps that can be taken to avoid a
tick bite in the first place. The ticks that transmit Lyme disease may
also transmit other disease-causing pathogens, and these other
infections are considered as well.
Drawing on real case histories
of individuals with Lyme disease--or illnesses that may be mistaken for

The biology of the spirochete, Borrelia burgdorferi, that causes Lyme disease
The role of animals such as mice that carry the infection
The life cycle of the ticks that transmit the infection
The importance of deer in perpetuating the cycle
The basics of diagnostic laboratory tests and how test results are interpreted
How antibiotics are used in treating Lyme disease

ticks are abundant in the woods, in walking trails, and in the shrubs
and tall grass where suburban lawns meet wooded areas. Barbour stresses
preventing disease through community-wide ecology projects and
individual and household protection. While it may be difficult to escape
infection, understanding the danger, the symptoms, and the treatment
goes a long way toward preventing long-term health consequences.
Featuring a list of reliable web sites and a glossary of terms, Lyme Disease is an invaluable resource for everyone who is at risk o
