Abstract:	"Health risks are dynamic and ever-changing, both at home and while traveling abroad. To stay abreast of the most up-to-date health recommendations, for decades health care professionals and travelers have relied on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's user-friendly Health Information for International Travel (commonly referred to as the ""Yellow Book"") as a trusted reference. Updated biennially by a team of experts, this book is the only publication for all official government recommendations for international travel.The book's features include clear and easy-to-read disease risk maps, information on where to find health care during travel, specific health information and itineraries for popular tourist destinations, detailed country-specific information for yellow fever and malaria, advice for those traveling with infants and children, and a comprehensive catalog of diseases, their clinical pictures, and their epidemiologies. The Yellow Book addresses both the pre-travel consult and post-travel evaluation and provides guidance for diagnosing based on presenting symptoms or by geographic location visited."
