    Summary: Derived from the classic leadership book The Leadership Challenge, Fourth Edition, this is a concise, focused primer on the Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership for students. Grounded in the same extensive research as the best selling The Leadership Challenge, this book uses examples and language to which students in higher education can relate. It also features reflective and critical thinking activities at the end of each chapter to help students engage in each of the Five Practices. -- Publisher description from http://www.josseybass.com (Oct. 3, 2011).

    The in vivo persistence of bacteria in spite of "adequate" therapy may be due to a variety of causes or factors. The most "obvious" cause is the presence of drug resistant strains, missed in conventional testing because of heterogeneity of resistance, special test requirements or emergence during treatment. A second large group of causes is due to atypical forms, whereas a third cause is due to tolerance. A fourth group of causes may be termed invironmental factors, and this includes drug inactivation, bioconversion or antagonism, often a result of the infection itself.
