African trypanosomes are tsetse-transmitted protozoa that inhabit
the extracellular compartment of host blood. They cause fatal
sleeping sickness in people, and Nagana, a wasting and generally
fatal disease, in cattle. While trypanosomes are most common to
Africa (about 30% of Africa's cattle graze on the fringe of the
tsetse habitat), some species have spread beyond its boarders to
Asia, the Middle East and South America. The African Trypanosomes,
volume one of World Class Parasites, is written for researchers,
students and scholars who enjoy reading research that has a major
impact on human health, or agricultural productivity, and against
which we have no satisfactory defense. It is intended to supplement
more formal texts that cover taxonomy, life cycles, morphology,
vector distribution, symptoms and treatment. It integrates vector,
pathogen and host biology and celebrates the diversity of approach
that comprises modern parasitological research.
