A manual on constructing and using mathematical models of infectious disease transmission in animals. With veterinary examples, it shows how models inform disease control strategies, making it valuable for clinicians, policy makers, civil servants, and interested readers.
This book deals with how we construct and use deterministic mathematical models of the transmission of infectious diseases in domestic and wild animals. It is a manual, drawing on examples from the world of veterinary medicine, but will appeal to the interested reader from any background. Mathematical models of infectious disease transmission dynamics are increasingly used to inform population-based disease control strategies. Such strategies are typically implemented by clinicians (in both human and animal medicine), policy makers, and career civil servants. This book will be of value to all such parties.
