This book has 17 chapters and is divided into two parts. Part I covered the following topics: biology of ticks, vectors of Lyme disease, and of Borrelia; laboratory diagnosis of B. burgdorferi infection, antibiotic treatment and epidemiology. Part II focuses on the clinical aspects of Lyme disease UR - https://dx.doi.org/10.1079/9781845938048.0000 ER -
