Fantastic book ...

Veterinary Clinical Parasitology, Seventh Edition

Anne M. Zajac, Gary A. Conboy

Blackwell Publishing, 2006

Still an essential book for the practitioner
I was surprised at Dr.? Reith's review of this book. Contrary to what Reith affirms, the book IS divided into host sections, al least for the parasites diagnosed by fecal examination; actually, there are 28 pages and 55 photographs devoted to dogs and cats, 16 pages ...

Parasite Rex : Inside the Bizarre World of Nature's Most Dangerous Creatures

Carl Zimmer

Free Press, 2001

Awesome book changes your outlook
Another excellently-written work from Carl Zimmer. This book will give you a bad case of the creepy-crawlies in parts. It will also completely change your outlook on the nature of life, because you will learn that parasites are not really the gross, "devolved" ...

office text
I purchased this text to help review for the FNP examination. It is an excellent resource--one that I frequently pull off the shelf to review. I would strongly recommend it for your medical library. The only criticism I have is that the layoutof topics and headings ...

McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math, 2008

Excellent textbook/reference
This book, now the 7th edition, is known among parasitologists as the best available overview of parasitology. It covers all parasites, not just human infections, therefore it provides knowledge about parasite diversity and relationships. I am a biologist and found ...

Microbiology & Immunology: Board Review Series

Arthur G. Johnson

Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2001

Best Book Around
If you are used to the Pathology and Physiology BRS style, this is a very good book. Although Micro Made Simple is rated really high and so is the Lange book, this book did it for me, while those did not. It is detailed and simple at the same time; the outline format ...

Ruth, Ph.D. Leventhal, Russell F. Cheadle

Pathology and Parasitology for Veterinary Technicians

Leland S. Shapiro

Delmar Cengage Learning, 2004

Depends on your background
This book was required reading for a class and very hard to get through. I read a lot of dry materials but this was more like a "teaching story." That being said, other people in the class loved it but did not like when the "science part" was explained and just wanted ...
