      abstract = {Only recently have we begun to appreciate the role of  microbiome in health and disease. Environmental factors and  change of life style including diet significantly shape  human microbiome that in turn appears to modify gut barrier  function affecting nutrient & electrolyte absorption and  inflammation. Approaches that can reverse the gut dysbiosis  represent as reasonable and novel strategies for restoring  the balance between host and microbes. In the book, we  offer summary and discussion on the advances in  understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms of microbial  host interactions in human diseases. We will not only  discuss intestinal bacterial community, but also viruses,  fungi and oral microbiome. Microbiome studies will  facilitate diagnosis, functional studies, drug development  and personalized medicine. Thus, this book will further  highlight the microbiome in the context of health and  disease, focusing on mechanistic concepts that underlie the  complex relationships between host and microbes.},
