Parasites threaten the health of animals and humans alike.
Especially in times of increasing globalization and global warming,
parasites can enlarge their "kingdom" by spreading. At the same
time many of the existing medical products have become ineffective.
As these products have been used for many decades, parasites have
developed resistances, so that they have progressed in their fight
for survival. Therefore it is obvious that humans must develop new
methods to face these dangers. Thus parasitological knowledge
increases daily and must be formulated to be accessible for as many
parasitologists (veterinarians, physicians, biologists) as
possible. Therefore it is necessary that reviews reflecting the
present status of the progress in many fields of research be
published. Therefore this book, published on the occasion of the
50th anniversary of the German Society of Parasitology, compiles 18
reviews on recent "hot topics," including a new vaccine against
malarial parasites; severe diseases with poor chances of treatment
(cryptosporidiosis, coccidiosis, theileriosis); vectors
(mosquitoes, ticks) and their transmission activities; and fish
parasites, including molecular insights into the sex of parasites
with a focus on the survival abilities that made them so dangerous.
These chapters provide detailed information for researchers, as
well as for teachers and students in parasitology.
