Parasitology An Integrated Approach by Alan Gunn, Sarah Jane Pitt

This book is designed mainly for undergraduate students of biological sciences, biomedical sciences, medicine and veterinary sciences who need to know about protozoan and helminth parasites and understand how they affect their hosts. It would also be useful for postgraduate students who need background information about parasites to support their research and for members of any other professional group who need an insight into the subject for their work. In the spirit of integration, we have provided web-based support material via the publisher’s website. This includes the numerous photographs of parasites that we could not include in the book without increasing its size and cost. There are also more extensive questions based on each chapter, and a number of project ideas that do not require access to complex laboratory facilities or use laboratory animals such as mice, rats, and rabbits.
