NEW AND EMERGING INFECTIONS OF MAN
C.A. Hart, M. Bennett and M. Begon

Abstract
Each year sees the addition of previously unknown pathogens to the vast number already affecting the human race. New or re-emerging diseases caused by such micro-organisms are described by the authors, who also review many of the factors influencing their spread. Not least, the complex interaction between these pathogens and their hosts, both human and animal, is highlighted in this paper, with the prediction that more infections will manifest themselves, as social relationships and livestock management systems continue to change.
