商品簡介
Mostly British veterinarians present a concise and clinically oriented textbook that provides students with a foundation in the parasitic diseases, discussing clinical features, laboratory findings, differential diagnoses, and therapeutic options. They cover the nature and characteristics of parasitism; diseases associated with helminths, protozoa, and arthropods; diagnostic parasitology; and principles of parasite control. Among specific topics are the immune defenses of the host, major nematode infections, tick-borne infections, pathology associated with parasitic infections, and mechanisms of action and resistance in anti-parasitic drugs.
