The study of epidemiology is an essential part of understanding how infectious diseases emerge, and how they affect humans, wildlife and wildlife conservation. The integration of modelling techniques with parasitology and population dynamics has been hugely significant for our understanding of disease dynamics. This text on wildlife epidemiology aims to bring the subject right up to date, covering the empirical and theoretical developments in the field.
