        Keys to the Nematode Parasites of Vertebrates

        Supplementary Volume

        by Lynda M Gibbons

        The ‘Keys’ are an essential resource for those working within medical, veterinary and biological departments worldwide, and are now available in a single volume, published by CABI. This supplementary volume includes revised and redescribed taxa and draws attention to new taxa, to the generic level, published by many authors after the original 'Keys' were completed. It also identifies the current position of some of the older genera not included in the original 'Keys'.

        Taenia solium Cysticercosis: From Basic to Clinical Science

        by Edited by Gagandeep Singh, Sudesh Prabhakar

        Taenia solium cysticercosis is a parasitic disease caused by the dissemination of the larval form of the pork tapeworm and affects an estimated 50 million people worldwide. It is endemic in several developing countries, including many in Central and South America, Africa and South Asia. Through increased immigration and international travel, it is also of emerging significance in developed countries such as the USA.This book, written by international leading experts in the field, covers the basic science and clinical aspects of Taenia solium, its pathology, investigational aspects of neurocysticercosis, and therapy and prevention

        Behavioural Ecology of Parasites

        by Edited by Edwin E Lewis, James F Campbell, Michael V K Sukhdeo

        Parasites have evolved numerous complex and fascinating ways of interacting with their hosts. The subject attracts the interest of numerous biologists from the perspective of ecology and behavioural biology, as well as from those concerned with more applied aspects of parasitology. However, until now there has been no recent book to synthesize this field.This book, written by leading authorities from the USA, Europe, Australia and New Zealand, provides the most comprehensive coverage of this important topic on the market.

        Sexually Transmitted Infections and AIDS in the Tropics
        Medical parasitology
        October 1998

        Sexually Transmitted Infections and AIDS in the Tropics

        by Edited by Om P Arya, Charles A Hart

        Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI) are a major public health problem both in their own right and because of their link with HIV infection. This has elevated their control to an absolute priority throughout the world. In developing countries, which account for approximately 75% of the easily curable STI, as estimated by the WHO, and where sexually transmitted HIV infection has reached epidemic proportions, the need is most acute. Here AIDS is claiming hundreds of thousands of lives and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. In addition, because of inadequate resources, the sequelae of STI (e.g. infertility and some cancers) contribute greatly to ill-health in the tropics. This book written by acknowledged experts working or with experience in tropical countries, gives clear, concise and up to date knowledge and understanding on all aspects of Sexually Transmitted Infections. It should be useful for all those involved in the appropriate management and control of STI in various settings, ranging from peripheral and rural and urban health care centres to large hospitals. It will also be invaluable for students of tropical medicine, medical microbiology and genito-urinary medicine.
