The traditional approach to disease emergence has been to focus on the biology of the disease. However, it is increasingly recognized that the emergence of infectious diseases is also a social and economic issue. The way that we live, work, and travel can all contribute to the emergence of new diseases.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the latest research on the emergence of infectious diseases, from the financial markets to the forests and farms. The book is divided into three parts:

The first part of the book provides an overview of the different factors that can contribute to the emergence of infectious diseases. This includes factors such as climate change, land use change, and the global trade in animals and animal products.
The second part of the book focuses on the development of models to predict and assess the risk of disease emergence. These models can be used to identify areas where there is a high risk of disease emergence, and to develop strategies to prevent or mitigate the impact of new diseases.
The third part of the book discusses the application of these models to real-world problems. The book includes case studies of how models have been used to predict and assess the risk of disease emergence in different settings, such as the financial markets, the forests, and the farms.

This book is a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers, and anyone else who is interested in the emergence of infectious diseases. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the latest research on this important topic, and it offers practical guidance on how to use models to predict and assess the risk of disease emergence.
