This atlas is intended as an aid to students enrolled in a laboratory course in parasitology. Specimens that are typically studied in such a course have been photographed with a digital camera and printed at 1200 dpi on a Xerox Phaser solid ink printer. The images and text are waterfast and can be used in a laboratory setting. The book is plastic-spiral bound, and is covered with a sheet of clear 10-mil plastic on the front and 23-gauge plastic on the back. A brief explanation of each plate is on the facing page, emphasizing major characteristics of the parasite's structure, life cycle, and medical significance. Most of the images are of purchased microscope slide specimens (some of which are no longer commercially available), making this atlas a useful companion to laboratory courses in parasitology. A copy of the CD, "Electronic Atlas of Parasitology" version 2.02 is now included with the printed atlas.

Newly organized and featuring new editors and hundreds of new images, Peters' Atlas of Tropical Medicine and Parasitology, Seventh Edition, brings you up to date with today's greatest challenges in tropical medicine. Increased global travel, climate change, human conflict, short-term/large-scale human assemblies, potent therapeutic agents, drug resistance, and vaccine misinformation have contributed to a greatly changed landscape in this complex field. This practical, highly visual guide provides more than 1,300 stunning illustrations, making it an authoritative parasitology resource for accurate diagnosis of complex diseases. - Contains hundreds of new images, including more than 50 completely revised life cycles and epidemiological maps. - Provides current information on Zika virus, chikungunya virus, Ebola virus, SARS and MERS-CoV caused by enzootic corona virus, tuberculosis, ceftriaxone-resistant gonorrhea, malaria, and much more. - Features a completely updated and significantly streamlined text, now organized not only by primary mode of disease transmission, but extended to define disease more strictly according to the route of acquisition – a logical change that reflects the principles applied to control measures for most infections. - Presents the knowledge and expertise of new editors Drs. Laura Nabarro, Stephen Morris-Jones, and David A. J. Moore.

Visual Guide to Clinical Parasitology: A Color Atlas" is an essential resource designed to provide clear and detailed visual representations of various parasitic infections encountered in clinical practice. The book serves as a color atlas, making it highly beneficial for students, clinicians, and laboratory personnel who are involved in diagnosing parasitic diseases. The book typically covers a broad range of parasitic organisms, including protozoa, helminths, and ectoparasites, offering detailed images of parasites in various stages of their life cycle. Each organism is paired with clinical and laboratory diagnostic features, emphasizing the identification of parasites through microscopic examination, staining techniques, and histological methods. One of the main strengths of this book lies in its comprehensive and practical approach. High-resolution images guide readers through the morphological features of parasites, helping them distinguish between similar species. In addition to visual aids, the book often includes brief clinical summaries, diagnostic hints, and notes on epidemiology, making it not only a visual guide but also a concise reference for clinical decision-making. Furthermore, the color atlas is organized in a user-friendly format, typically arranged by the type of parasite, such as intestinal, blood, or tissue parasites, and includes case studies or clinical examples that illustrate real-world applications. Overall, "Visual Guide to Clinical Parasitology: A Color Atlas" is a valuable tool for anyone engaged in parasitology diagnostics or research, bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical, hands-on experience in clinical settings.
