This book is another excellent addition to the Practical Approach series. It is a good laboratory reference manual for use by field and health workers, diagnostic laboratories and researchers in both developing and developed countries and would be useful to students of medical parasitology. * Anne Kaukas, SGM Quarterly, February 1997 * Without question, this book is a very welcome addition to the field of diagnostic parasitology. I would certainly recommend it for purchase by all clinical laboratories involved in microbiological and parasitological diagnosis. * Leslie H. Chappell, University of Aberdeen, Parasitology Today, vol. 12, no. 6, 1996 *
