Reviews for Parasitic Zoonoses

From the reviews: This excellent reference on parasitic zoonoses would make a nice addition to the libraries of veterinarians and public health workers as well as students, both at the undergraduate and graduate levels. ... The audience includes those involved in animal and public health including veterinarians, parasitologists, medical doctors, public health officials, and students. ... This is a well-written book that presents accurate information with appropriate references to the current literature. A number of diagrams make it easy to following the parasite's lifecycle.
