Pocket Guide to Fungal Infection

Since the first edition of Identification of Pathogenic Fungi, there has been incredible progress in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of fungal diseases: new methods of diagnosis have been introduced, and new antifungal agents have been licensed for use. However, these developments have been offset by the emergence of resistance to several classes of drugs, and an increase in infections caused by fungi with innate resistance to one or more classes. Identification of Pathogenic Fungi, Second Edition, assists in the identification of over 100 of the most significant organisms of medical importance. Each chapter is arranged so that the descriptions for similar organisms may be found on adjacent pages. Differential diagnosis details are given for each organism on the basis of both colonial appearance and microscopic characteristics for the organisms described. In this fully updated second edition, a new chapter on the identification of fungi in histopathological sections and smears has been added, while colour illustrations of cultures and microscopic structures have been included, and high quality, four colour digital images are incorporated throughout.

Kids are amazing! Show them real need, appeal to their generous hearts, and they will surprise you with their creativity and perseverance in doing good for others. The Catholic Kid's Guide to Stewardship is based on the seven corporal works of mercy on the belief that even the youngest child can make a difference. The author has collected here some memorable and touching true stories of what kids have accomplished--and are still accomplishing! She centers each chapter on Scripture and the teachings of Jesus, offering passages the kids can read on their own or with their families. Also included are idea starters that suggest ways the kids can be stewards, depending on their age, gifts, and inclination. Each chapter also contains a Note to Parents and Catechists, emphasizing practical points to watch for or to discuss with their children, plus a Stewardship Prayer. The book concludes with a chapter on stewardship resources. Written for ages 9 to 12, The Catholic Kid's Guide to Stewardship provides inspiration not only for the children but for adults as well. An invaluable resource for religious educators and parents!
