Rezensionen / Stimmen
"Pathophysiology of Endoparasitic Infection represents a unique and highly professional accomplishment. There is no other treatise of this magnitude devoted to the pathophysiology of endoparasitic helminths and protozoa. A major strength of the book is the convincing force with which the author writes. Symons is, undeniably, the fater of pathophysiology of enteric parasitism--he is a pioneer and expert in the field... An excellent starting point for new students entering the field. It is an invaluable documentation of previous work... It is an authoritative source of information and, most of all, of good ideas." --PARASITOLOGY TODAY "There is a subject index and some chapters are illustrated with electron micrographs. The book will be useful for research in the fields of animal and human health." --VETERINARY BULLETIN
