Infections caused by parasites are still a major global health
problem. Although parasitic infections are responsible for a significant
morbidity and mortality in the developing countries, they are also prevalent in
the developed countries. Early diagnosis and treatment of a parasitic infection
is not only critical for preventing morbidity and mortality individually but
also for reducing the risk of spread of infection in the community. This
concise book gives an overview of critical facts for clinical and laboratory
diagnosis, treatment and prevention of parasitic diseases which are common in
humans and which are most likely to be encountered in a clinical practice. This
book is a perfect companion for primary care physicians, residents, nurse
practitioners, medical students, paramedics, other public health care personnel
and as well as travelers.
