Parasites of the Colder Climates

Widely recognized as a problem in the tropics, the parasitic load carried in cold northern climates is vastly under-appreciated. Focusing on parasites indigenous to cooler climates, this book provides a comprehensive overview of parasites in these areas and the diseases they cause. Written by experts in their respective fields, with chapters covering Scandinavia and the Baltic States, Canada, Alaska, Iceland, and Russia, the book presents a concise single reference of diagnostic methods and preventative information for epidemiologists, clinicians, and parasitologists and a unique resource for researchers, advanced undergraduates, and postgraduates.Akuffo, Hannah is the author of 'Parasites of the Colder Climates' with ISBN 9780415275842 and ISBN 0415275849.
