A new book focused on infection prevention and control (IPC) and social sciences, written during a once in a hundred years global health emergency concerning an infection and the behaviour of human beings to stop it's spread, could not have been timelier. Key Features: Reflect upon a diverse range of perspectives beyond the purely technical and microbiological aspects of IPC, including and considering human behaviour and all of its influences with a focus on the psychosocial. Reflect upon how the diverse range of knowledge, expertise and experiences presented within the chapters of this book can offer opportunities to do things differently or more effectively in the future, including influencing future theory and practice of IPC. Reflect upon your own knowledge, skills, attitudes, beliefs and stereotypes regarding IPC and how each can be enhanced by an expansion of thinking beyond the purely technical/biomedical (Ogden 2019) to a more humanistic/social science understanding of IPC.
