To gain an overall understanding of this novel virus, various elements of the COVID-19 strain are captured in the following 4 volumes: Features, Transmission, Detection, and Case Studies in COVID-19 examines the effects of the virus on the body, as well as its transmission and clinical profile. Linking Neuroscience and Behavior in COVID-19 examines the effect of both the virus and the pandemic on behavior and mental health. International and Life Course Aspects of COVID-19 describes the nuances and international variations of COVID-19 in different populations and age groups. Management, Body Systems, and Case Studies in COVID-19 describes the multisystem disease and the organs and tissues affected, assessment and treatment of infected patients. Discusses COVID-19 biology, including pathogenesis and transmission Outlines detection methods, biomarkers associated with severity, and disease outcomes Discusses the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the virus itself on behavior and psychology Features chapters on the severe damage to the nervous system which may be caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection including myelitis Discusses outcomes related to global populations and differences observed in symptomatology and care Focuses on the brain, with a look at developmental changes in pregnancy, newborns, childhood, and adolescence Discusses the management of multisystem symptomatology, including the effects of COVID-19 on the neurological, respiratory, hematological, hepatobiliary, gastrointestinal, and cardiovascular systems Includes select guidelines for clinics providing care for COVID-19 patients Features a section on case studies to provide a comprehensive primer for each topic Contains chapters with key facts, dictionary of terms, summary points, applications to other areas pertinent to each chapter, and policies and procedures
