This book has contained detailed elaborations on the epidemiology, diagnostic methods, control and prevention measures, socio-economic importance and public health implication of camel brucellosis. It has also a sero-epidemiological study focusing on the etiological sero-prevalence and associated risk factors for the occurrence, transmission and distribution of camel brucellosis between individual camels and among herds in the extensive husbandry system in one of the pastoral areas of Ethiopia, eastern Africa. It has prioritized the major contributing factors and their degree of association using statistical analysis. In addition, it has an assessment of the knowledge and attitude and practice of the pastoralists towards zoonotic importance of the disease. By this, the public health implication of the disease is analyzed and discussed in the context of the production system in the area. Moreover, it contained a detail discussion of the findings of this study with the previous studies done in various areas inside and outside the country. Finally, it has identified the major problems in the camel production associated with brucellosis and its way of possible control measures.
