"In the twenty-first century, the bacterium staphylococcus aureus continues to be
a global threat to human and animal health. There is currently no vaccine for preventing
S. aureus infections and the bacterium has developed resistance to many, if not most,
antibiotics, hence the therapeutic options are rapidly disappearing. Understanding
the genetic and physiological flexibility that allows this commensal bacterium to
become a powerful pathogen and elucidating the myriad of mechanisms it employs to
avoid the host and/or antimicrobials are important areas of research. This book brings
together respected S. aureus experts from around the world to provide a timely overview
of staphylococcal research ... Essential reading for scientists working with staphylococci,
this text is an excellent introduction for entry-level scientists, as well as those
seeking a deeper understanding of this critically important bacterial pathogen."--Back
