This book
first presents the basic concepts of the immune response, bacterial
structure, taxonomy, metabolism, and genetics. Subsequent chapters emphasize
normal relationships among bacteria on external surfaces, mechanisms by which
microorganisms damage the host, host defense mechanisms, source and distribution
of pathogens (epidemiology), principles of diagnosis and mechanisms of action of
antimicrobial drugs.

Actinobacteria
have an extensive bioactive secondary metabolism and produce a huge amount of
naturally derived antibiotics, as well as many anticancer, anthelmintic, and
antifungal compounds. In this book, we present the experience of worldwide
specialists in the field of Actinobacteria, exploring their current knowledge
and future prospects.
