Summary:

This book provides an overview of cutting-edge and next-generation research and technologies for combating antimicrobial resistance. Antibiotic-resistant infections are projected to cause 10 million deaths annually by the year 2050. A sustainable, unified approach by researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and the public is urgently needed to stem this trend. This book aims to provide a comprehensive summary of current and future-facing efforts to mitigate the threat of AMR through a One-Health approach. This book is a valuable resource for students, researchers, policymakers, and the public about AMR and novel strategies to combat AMR.
