1. Introduction. 2. What is a healthy organism? 3. Over 3000 years ago the Chinese and Hebrews were advocating cleanliness in food water and personal hygiene. 4. During the second half of the nineteenth century, the work of pasteur, Koch and the search for microbes as causes of disease. 5. Often we recognise an infection by the symptoms it causes. The immune response is not so obvious, until we recover. 6. MacFarlane Burnet work in the middle of the twentieth century contributed to a better understanding of the immune response and the effectiveness of immunisation programs. 7. Epidemiology studies involve the collection and careful statisticsl analysis of large quantities of data. Such studies assist the causal identification of non-infectious diseases. 8. Increased understanding has led to the development of a wide range of strategies to prevent and control disease. 9. Tips to make you your study more productive. 10. HSC Examination and 2008 draft performance bands. 11. Strategies for coping with the HSC examination. 12. Sample questions and answers. 13. Glossary. 14. Concept map.
