Anyone who has spent an extended period in the tropics has an idea,
through caring for others or first-hand experience, just what it is
like to be a primate parasite host. Monkeys and apes often share
parasites with humans, for example the HIV viruses which evolved
from related viruses of chimpanzees and sooty mangabeys, and so
understanding the ecology of infectious diseases in non-human
primates is of paramount importance. Furthermore, there is
accumulating evidence that environmental change may promote contact
between humans and non-human primates and increase the possibility
of sharing infectious disease. Written for academic researchers,
this book addresses these issues and provides up-to-date
information on the methods of study, natural history and
ecology/theory of the exciting field of primate parasite ecology.
