✦ Synopsis

According to the C.D.C., millions of Americans develop parasitic infections, but symptoms often go unnoticed or are misdiagnosed. From tapeworms to the "cat poop parasite," parasites are all around us, and we're lucky if we somehow evade infection. This essential volume simplifies the complex concepts relating to parasitic infection and disease for readers who need to know what's going on around them. It details what parasitic diseases are, as well as the various types such as Protozoan, Helminth, and Ectoparasites. It discusses the causes and symptoms of each type of parasitic disease.
