      abstract = {"Since 1995, the Centers for Disease Control and  Prevention has published Emerging Infectious Diseases, a  public health journal that endeavors to improve scientific  understanding of disease emergence, prevention, and  elimination. Widely known for its leading research in  infectious disease, is also recognized for its unique  aesthetic, which brings together visual art from across  periods and, through prose, makes it relatable to the  journal's science-minded readership. In Art in Science:  Selections from Emerging Infectious Diseases, the journal's  highly popular fine-art covers are contextualized with  essays that address how the featured art relates to  science, and to us all. Through the combined covers and  essays, the journal's contents -- topics such as  infections, contagions, disease emergence, antimicrobial  resistance -- find larger context amid topics such as  poverty and war, the hazards of global travel, natural  disasters, and human-animal interactions.This collection of  92 excerpts and covers from Emerging Infectious Diseases  will be of interest to readers of the journal or to anyone  who wishes to reach across the aisle between art and  science"--Provided by publisher.},
