Medical Genetics An Illustrated Outline

This is a full colour book on human parasites, intended for postgraduates in medicine, biology and health sciences. Parasites are described within taxonomic groupings for easy reference: protozoa, helminths, and arthopods. Details are given for each on life cycles, epidemiology, distribution, clinical effects and treatment. The role of insects and others as vector is also covered, together with their control. The book also includes a systematic description of all scientific and clinical aspects of parasitic disease, including tropical disease.
