This book acquaints the general reader
with the spread of fungal diseases, features
of their clinical course and prevention.
Descriptions of fungi and mycoses caused
by them are rarely found in the popular
literature, whereas many books and brochures
are devoted to bacterial and viral
infections. The author decided, therefore,
to try to fill this gap.
The author’s aim is to inform the reader
about the properties of fungi, the main characteristics
of the clinical course, epidemiology,
and prevention of the most widespread
dermatophytoses and other types
of mycoses affecting the skin and mucosa.
This book is mainly devoted to these
aspects of medical mycology.
The book was translated from Russian by Elena Shubina was published in 1988 by Mir Publishers.
