The book reviews studies of several generations of scientists from the countries of the former Soviet Union where plague foci are found and presents them for the first time to a global audience. In addition, the book provides comprehensive information on historical plague pandemics and explores future strategies for managing the disease. 0aMedical microbiology. 0aMicrobial ecology. 0aEpidemiology. 0aMicrobial genetics.14aMedical Microbiology.24aMicrobial Ecology.24aEpidemiology.24aMicrobial Genetics.1 aAtshabar, Bakyt B.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt1 aStenseth, Nils Chr.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt1 aFair, Jeanne M.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303158830308iPrinted edition:z978303158832708iPrinted edition:z9783031588334 0aBirkhäuser Advances in Infectious Diseases,x2504-383840uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-58831-0
