Manson's Tropical Diseases, 24th Edition, provides an authoritative reference on global infectious conditions and environmental health to support clinical decision-making. Published by Elsevier, this 1384-page volume addresses the diagnosis, treatment, and control of tropical disorders across clinical and field environments.
The content addresses major pathogenic groups, including protozoan, helminthic, bacterial, viral, mycobacterial, and systemic fungal infections. It further incorporates non-communicable conditions, venomous animal exposures, environmental stresses, and nutrition-associated diseases. Special clinical sections detail emergency and intensive care strategies, pediatric care, and maternal health adapted for resource-constrained locations.
A primary structural addition includes a section on 21st Century Drivers of Tropical Medicine, which evaluates the influence of climate change, poverty, inequality, and political instability on global public health. Recognized as a selection for the 2026 Doody's Core Titles in Infectious Disease, this edition offers support for physicians treating patients with tropical illnesses, traveling to endemic areas, or teaching tropical medicine.
