Veterinary Parasitology
Wiley-Blackwell (Verlag)
978-0-470-67162-7 (ISBN)
- Greatly expands and revises the systematic sections on helminthology, protozoology and entomology, and descriptions of animal parasites
- Tailored for those directly involved in the diagnosis, treatment, and control of parasitic diseases of domestic animals
- Compatible with the diversity of current parasitology teaching modules - both for teaching parasite systematics and diseases on a host-organ basis
- Offers the most detailed parasite descriptions available today for teachers, research groups, veterinarians in practice and in government service, and others involved in aspects of parasitic disease
