Description

Parasitology: A Conceptual Approach provides a modern, thought-provoking overview of parasitology by focusing on the biology, ecology, and evolution of parasites rather than simply listing species. Authors Eric S. Loker and Bruce V. Hofkin present a unified understanding of how parasites interact with their hosts and environments, offering insight into emerging parasitic diseases, host-parasite coevolution, and global health concerns.

This book is richly illustrated and written in a clear, engaging style that makes complex concepts accessible to students, educators, and researchers alike. Whether you’re studying zoology, microbiology, or medical parasitology, this text helps you see parasites as integral components of biological systems rather than isolated organisms.
