A complex and enigmatic ailment that has intrigued medical professionals for centuries, Hansen's disease, also known as leprosy, continues to captivate the attention of researchers and practitioners alike. "Hansen's Disease: A Complete Clinical Guide," (accessible through the link https://lnkd.in/djSRdJfJ), emerges as a pivotal resource in comprehending this intricate affliction. This book delves into the multifaceted dimensions of Hansen's disease, offering a comprehensive and up-to-date understanding of its clinical manifestations, diagnostic approaches, and therapeutic interventions. In addition, it seamlessly intertwines historical perspectives, elucidating the disease's societal impact through the ages, with cutting-edge clinical research that has illuminated the intricate pathogenesis and diverse clinical presentations of the disease. Editing a book like this means more than five years of uninterrupted dedication. We worked at a hard pace, there was no day or hour when we weren't reading, writing, revising, or correcting a chapter. Contributing to increasing knowledge about Hansen's disease and improving the lives of people affected by this disease has made every day of this process worthwhile. I express my immense and infinite gratitude to the Associated Editors Marcos C. Florian and Marcos C. Virmond, to the brilliant team of international experts authors, and to the support of the Springer team. #partnership #leprosy #Hansensdisease #neglectedtropicaldiseases #hasneniase #springer #ufes #unifesp #usp
