Product Description
Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people. They do so from a linguistic point of view, and in the case of this book, the focus is on "Ehrlichiosis," including when used in literature (e.g. all authors that might have Ehrlichiosis in their name). As such, this book represents the largest compilation of timeline events associated with Ehrlichiosis when it is used in proper noun form. Webster's timelines cover bibliographic citations, patented inventions, as well as non-conventional and alternative meanings which capture ambiguities in usage. These furthermore cover all parts of speech (possessive, institutional usage, geographic usage) and contexts, including pop culture, the arts, social sciences (linguistics, history, geography, economics, sociology, political science), business, computer science, literature, law, medicine, psychology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and other physical sciences. This "data dump" results in a comprehensive set of entries for a bibliographic and/or event-based timeline on the proper name Ehrlichiosis, since editorial decisions to include or exclude events is purely a linguistic process. The resulting entries are used under license or with permission, used under "fair use" conditions, used in agreement with the original authors, or are in the public domain. ... Read more

User-Friendly guide
I have found this very useful. The book has directed me to sites, which I may have never been able to find on my own.
I strongly recommend it for those, who are relatively new to Ehrlichiosis and who strive for as much information as possible on the disease.

Save your money . . .
This is about a page and a half of plain old news article.There is nothing new or different that isn't available with more information at no cost on line.What you do get is error:for example, she asserts that co-infection with babesiosis and B burgdorferi or B microti may make for more severe illness, but there is no increased risk for long term complications.This runs counter to the body of literature on this subject.As for other co-infections or tick-borne diseases than babesiosis, her only mention is of A. phagocytophilia, giving the impression that these are the sum of major infections.She completely ignores both erlichiosis and Bartonella, both common co-infections.This author needs to either learn Lyme, or stick to material she has adequately researched. ...
