This book addresses the major neglected tropical diseases (NTDs)
– based on their prevalence and the years of healthy life lost to
disability – in Latin American and Caribbean countries. These
include Chagas disease, leishmaniasis, hookworm infection, and
other soil-transmitted helminth infections, followed by dengue,
schistosomiasis, leishmaniasis, leprosy, cysticercosis,
bartonellosis, Plasmodium vivax malaria, and onchocerciasis. Topics
like disease burden, major manifestations and approaches to the
control and elimination of NTDs in Latin America and the Caribbean
are discussed in detail. As such, the book will be of general
interest to basic researchers and clinicians engaged in infectious
disease, tropical medicine, and parasitology, and a must-have for
scientists specialized in the characteristics of this region of the
world.​
