From contaminated infant formula to a spate of all-too familiar headlines in recent years, food safety has emerged as one of the harsher realities behind China's economic miracle. Tainted beef, horse meat and dioxin outbreaks in the western world have also put food safety in the global spotlight. Food Safety in China: Science, Technology, Management and Regulation presents a comprehensive overview of the history and current state of food safety in China, along with emerging regulatory trends and the likely future needs of the country. Although the focus is on China, global perspectives are presented in the chapters and 33 of the 99 authors are from outside of China. Timely and illuminating, this book offers invaluable insights into our understanding of a critical link in the increasingly globalized complex food supply chain of today's world.
This book intends to share the lessons and experiences learnt from the Chinese parasitic diseases control programme to the professionals, policy makers and researchers from other disease endemic countries. Especially, those lessons on surveillance and response have been well distilled at national level in China, where some of parasitic diseases have been and going to be eliminated, e.g. lymphatic filariasis, malaria, schistosomiasis. The book covers the concept and technologies on surveillance and response to endemic and outbreaks of parasitic diseases, as well as relevant case management and data handling. The book includes three main parts. The first part consists of general chapters, which covers the general information on parasitic disease surveillance, the classification and application of surveillance technologies, etc. The second part of chapters cover surveillance technologies on parasites distribution, infections patterns in a region, related vectors, ecological environment elements, and the early warning and response, etc. In the third part of chapters, the concepts, methods, operating procedures, data collection, result analysis, reports and conclusions of various surveillance technologies in detail, along with the examples and guidelines of surveillance and management for parasitic infections are included. The book is likely to be of interest to the world-wide professionals, practitioners, managers and policy makers in governments or industry in the field of infectious diseases control.

Infectious diseases are the leading cause of death globally, particularly among children and young adults. The spread of new pathogens and the threat of antimicrobial resistance pose particular challenges in combating these diseases. Major Infectious Diseases identifies feasible, cost-effective packages of interventions and strategies across delivery platforms to prevent and treat HIV/AIDS, other sexually transmitted infections, tuberculosis, malaria, adult febrile illness, viral hepatitis, and neglected tropical diseases. The volume emphasizes the need to effectively address emerging antimicrobial resistance, strengthen health systems, and increase access to care. The attainable goals are to reduce incidence, develop innovative approaches, and optimize existing tools in resource-constrained settings.
National Institute of Parasitic Diseases, China: 70 Years and Beyond, Volume 110 covers the major achievements gained in the research and control of parasitic diseases in China, e.g. schistosomiasis, malaria, lymphatic filariasis, echinococcosis, visceral leishmaniasis, soil-transmitted helminthiasis, foodborne clonorchiasis, angiostrongyliasis, taeniasis and cysticercosis, etc. The book introduces approaches that can be developed with big data analytic tools, how to use surveillance-response systems at national and regional levels, and tactics to promote the national parasitic resources center to support various research and control activities. Finally, a chapter on the roadmap for parasitic diseases control in China from 2020 to 2030 is presented. - Informs and updates on the controlled progress of parasitic diseases in China, with a focus on strategies, combating measures, surveillance-response systems, and multi-sectoral cooperation - Introduces advances in research achievements in the development of diagnostics, drugs, insecticides and surveillance tools - Features reviews of more traditional parasitic diseases that help to shape current thinking and applications of modern tools in research and control of diseases
This multidisciplinary volume, the first of its kind, presents an account of China’s contemporary transformation via one of its most important yet overlooked cities: Shenzhen, located just north of Hong Kong. In recent decades, Shenzhen has transformed from an experimental site for economic reform into a dominant city at the crossroads of the global economy. The first of China’s special economic zones, Shenzhen is today a UNESCO City of Design and the hub of China’s emerging technology industries. Bringing China studies into dialogue with urban studies, the contributors explore how the post-Mao Chinese appropriation of capitalist logic led to a dramatic remodeling of the Chinese city and collective life in China today. These essays show how urban villages and informal institutions enabled social transformation through cases of public health, labor, architecture, gender, politics, education, and more. Offering scholars and general readers alike an unprecedented look at one of the world’s most dynamic metropolises, this collective history uses the urban case study to explore critical problems and possibilities relevant for modern-day China and beyond.

It is clear that many fascinating problems still remain to be addressed in parasite transmission modelling, from better understanding of transmission processes and natural history of infection to investigating the impact of ecological and spatial scales, climate change, host immunity and social behaviour, parasite-host evolutionary dynamics and parasite community ecology on parasite transmission. This book captures some of the advances made in recent years and provides indications of ways forward for addressing these questions by shedding light on developments in conceptual frameworks and modelling tools as well as the emergence of new data forms for aiding model construction, testing and analysis. Another important advance has been the parallel development of robust computationally-intensive statistical methods to allow model testing and parameterization by aiding the fitting of models to complex data. This is an exciting area of work, which we believe will broaden the scope of mathematical modelling in investigating parasite transmission processes. In particular, we expect this advance will now allow modellers to begin the successful development and analysis of mechanistically-rich models of parasite transmission that will facilitate better integration of the variety of mechanisms increasingly recognized as important in simultaneously affecting transmission, including abiotic processes, trophic and evolutionary interactions, movement in space, and behaviour and even physiology of the individual. We foresee a continuing bright future for using mathematical modelling to clarify parasite transmission dynamics and address problems related to effective parasite control. Ultimately, through this improved application of models to research and management, we expect that parasite control would be an achievable goal bringing benefits to a vast number of our fellow human beings.
In recent years, zoonoses and communicablediseases common to man and animals have gained increasing attention worldwide.Human diseases that have their origins in infected animals--such as AIDS, SARS, andCreutzfeldt-Jakob--have highlighted the need for a better understanding ofanimal diseases. The ease and speed of modern travel facilitatesthe spread of diseases once confined to specific geographic areas, as recentlyoccurred with the Covid-19 epidemic. Animal migration and trade pose a similarthreat, as was shown by the outbreaks in the United States of West Nile feverand monkeypox--two diseases not previously known in the Western Hemisphere. Eachof these examples highlights the need for accurate, up-to-date information, such as that presented here in the latest edition of Zoonoses and Communicable Diseases Common to Man and Animals. This edition, published for the first time inthree volumes, covers: I.Bacterioses and mycoses II.Chlamydioses, rickettsioses, and viroses III.Parasitoses The books provide a detailed overview of themost important historic and emerging zoonotic diseases, such as Ebolahemorrhagic fever, foot-and-mouth disease, influenza, giardiasis, Japaneseencephalitis, shigellosis, and spongiform encephalopathies, with informationranging from their first appearance and most important outbreaks to the latestscientific knowledge of the diseases and their causative agents. The chaptersprovide the following key information on each disease: etiology geographicdistribution symptoms and occurrence in man and animals source of infection andmode of transmission role of animals in its epidemiology diagnostic techniques, and prevention and control measures Numerous tables and figures diagrammingmodes of transmission complement the text. The book is an essential tool for biologists, parasitologists, virologists, veterinarians, doctors, epidemiologists, andworkers in public health and animal health institutions, as well as forteachers, researchers, and students in these fields. All of them will find valuablematerial to enrich their collection of reference works in the third edition ofZoonoses and communicable diseases common to man and animals. Volumes 2(Chlamydioses, rickettsioses, and viroses) and 3(Parasitoses) are also available.
