The Advances in Parasitology series includes medical studies of parasites of major influence, along with reviews of more traditional areas, such as zoology, taxonomy and life history, all topics which help to shape current thinking and applications. This latest release includes chapters on the discovery of selected compounds with anthelmintic activity against the barber’s pole worm – where to from now?, zoonotic transmission of intestinal parasites: implications for control and elimination, taenia asiatica with a historical overview of taeniasis and cysticercosis, advances on the use of automated image analysis of parasite larval assays, and much more.
"....Taken together, the chapters of this volume were written in a way that will initiate and amplify progressive research on parasitic helminths, propelling the discipline forward. This book is an excellent tool for students with an interest in parasitology, medical and veterinary professionals, public health officials, and others who have general interest in global health and the human-animal interface, and makes a strong argument for amplifying the parasitic helminth workforce due to the translational and scalable findings that could be applied globally." --The Quarterly Review of Biology
