Whether contracted through contaminated food or a trip to the local petting zoo, disease-causing E. coli is a major human health threat Most E. coli strains live harmlessly in the intestines of healthy humans and animals, but virulent strains, the enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) and certain Shiga toxin–producing E. coli (STEC), cause life-threatening infections, with young children and the elderly most at risk. Easily transmitted through contaminated water, food, and more rarely through contact between animals and people, controlling the development of EHEC and STEC outbreaks is a concern for the infectious disease community and the food industry. Covering a diverse array of topics, including microbial pathogenesis, disease pathophysiology, food safety, genetic analysis, veterinary microbiology, epidemiology, and environmental microbiology, Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli and Other Shiga Toxin-Producing E. coli presents the most current, relevant research overview from a multidisciplinary, international group of expert authors concerned with tracking, deciphering, intervening and understanding the diseases caused by EHEC and STEC. Editors Vanessa Sperandio and Carolyn J. Hovde updated and expanded the scope of the previous edition, Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Other Shiga Toxin-Producing E. coli Strains. Useful as a textbook for advanced courses in microbiology, food safety, infectious disease, or microbial pathogenesis, the text is also a valuable reference for research scientists, clinicians, health professionals, policy makers, and food safety professionals.

Shiga Naoya was a giant of Japanese literature but he is barely known outside Japan. This book is the first study of Shiga to explore in depth his affinities - both aesthetic and philosophic - with the long tradition of Zen art.

This book examines the literature of Shiga Naoya, who is highly regarded in modern Japan for his unique style and methods of describing his personal experiences and emotions. Contributing new findings to the field of scholarship on Shiga, this study focuses in particular on Shiga’s nature-inspired writings and discusses how he created some vivid images of nature that became famous and still linger in Japanese people’s minds. Shiga’s remarkable sensitivity toward nature and the influences he received from earlier writers in Japan and abroad is examined. The complexity and depth of his understanding of nature is further revealed in his fascination with the supernatural, which also contributed to the creation of his literary style.
