The isolation and identification of fungi is an often-neglected area of medical microbiology. The science known as medical mycology began in the early 19th century in Italy with the discovery of tinea favosa. The discipline concerns those infections in humans and animals that occur because of pathogenic fungi.

In the present book, nine typical literatures about Medical Mycology published on international authoritative journals were selected to introduce the worldwide newest progress, which contains reviews or original researches on Medical Mycology. We hope this book can demonstrate advances in Medical Mycology as well as give references to the researchers, students and other related people.
