This chapter approaches the field of infectious diseases from 3 perspectives. This first section reviews the characteristics of specific pathogenic organisms (gram-positive cocci, staphylococci, gram-negative bacilli, gram-positive bacilli, gram-negative cocci, anaerobic bacteria, actinomycetes, mycobacteria, spirochetes, fungi, viruses, etc). Symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of conditions caused by these organisms are discussed.
