Antimicrobial agents are essential for the treatment of life-threatening        infections and for managing the burden of minor infections in the community. In        addition, they play a key role in organ and bone marrow transplantation, cancer        chemotherapy, artificial joint and heart valve surgery. Unlike other classes of        medicines, they are vulnerable to resistance from mutations in target        microorganisms, and their adverse effects may extend to other patients (increased        risk ofcross-infection). As a consequence, there is a constant requirement for new        agents, as well as practices that ensure the continued effective prescribing of        licensed agents.Public awareness and concerns about drug resistant organisms has led        to widespread publicity and political action in the UK, Europe and worldwide. The        control of drug resistance and the implementation of good prescribing practice are        now legal requirements in the UK as a result of the UK Health Act (2008). These        fundamental changes underscore the need for a thorough understanding of the        advantages and risks associated with specific antibiotic choices.This sixth edition        of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy continues to be a valuable resource for undergraduates        and graduates requiring a thorough grounding in the scientific basis and clinical        application of these drugs. This new edition is updated to include the most recently        licensed agents, notably in the treatment of viral infections including HIV/AIDS,        and contains new guidance on prescribing practice and infection control practices        that limit the development and spread of resistantorganisms.
