This study provides comprehensive coverage of all aspects of parasitic disease in domestic animals from both temperate and topical zones. The book deals with all three aspects of parasitology - helminthology, entomology and protozoology - and blood-borne rickettsial infections. It systematically reviews: epidemiology; immunity; anthelmintics; ecoparasiticides; and laboratory diagnosis. The book should be of interest to veterinary students studying parasitology, practising veterinarians and those directly involved in the diagnosis, treatment and control of parasitic infections of domestic animals.
