Epidemiology of Infectious Diseases : : A Human View / / Jos Frantzen.
The current bio-medical view on epidemics is extended to a human one using humanities. The bio-medical view is deepened using knowledge of botanical epidemiology. We reflect on the multi-dimensional, subjective, character of epidemics to enable appropriate, human, management of epidemics.
