Veterinary Clinical Parasitology, Eighth Edition, prepared
under the auspices of the American Association of Veterinary
Parasitologists (AAVP), emphasizes the morphologic identification
of both internal and external parasites of domestic animals.
Focusing on the tests and information most relevant to daily
practice, the book describes accurate, cost-effective techniques
for diagnosing parasitic infections in animals. Including clear,
easy-to-find information on the distribution, life cycle, and
importance of each parasite, Veterinary Clinical
Parasitology offers more than 450 images to aid with diagnosis.
The Eighth Edition includes a new chapter on immunologic and
molecular diagnosis, increased coverage of ticks and new sections
on identification of microfilariae and larvae in diagnostic
samples. The new edition also features expanded information on
quantitative egg counts, detection of anthelmintic resistance and
identification of ruminant strongylid larvae. Additional
improvements include many new images throughout the book, revised
taxonomic information, a new layout featuring tabs by section to
improve user-friendliness, and a companion website offering the
images from the book in PowerPoint at www.wiley.com/go/zajac.
Veterinary Clinical Parasitology is a highly practical
benchside reference invaluable to clinicians, technicians, and
students.
