Publish Date: 2004-11-17
Features: Syphilis is one of the most important classic sexually transmitted diseases. It is highly harmful, highly contagious, and can even be inherited. After the liberation (1950s), China had basically eradicated syphilis. In the 1960s, this content was removed from medical school textbooks, so many healthcare workers are relatively unfamiliar with syphilis prevention and treatment knowledge. Due to syphilis being an international infectious disease, with economic development and frequent international exchanges, syphilis has resurfaced domestically and has shown an increasing trend in recent years. The publication of this book is a good thing in academia. The authors come from a medical family, with two generations working in dermatology and venereology for decades, accumulating rich clinical experience. Combining the latest advancements in medical science and the shift of the medical model from the biomedical model to the bio-psycho-social medical model, they have proposed new insights in this book. The book is well-written, high-quality, and highly practical, offering realistic guidance for improving disease control and the ability of clinical healthcare workers to serve patients. It is an excellent reference book. Syphilis is one of the most important classic sexually transmitted diseases. It is highly harmful, highly contagious, and can even be inherited.
