MT student 2 week parasitology class.:
I liked the book, there is a glossary for each chapter, and the color plates are of high quality... I learned well from it, and will likley use it in the future.
Great book:
This book is great. Its easy to read and has a lot of great pictures. It has a ton of information but it is very easy to understand. A must for any parasitology class.
Strongly Recommend Medical Parasitology.:
I have used this text in conjunction with my undergraduate course in Parasitology for four years. My students love the book. They report that it is easy to follow and well organized. The photographs are excellent, but for a class, a good atlas of parasitology is still needed in conjunction with this book. Because of their expense, we have one printed atlas for the room, and we access an online atlas for additional images and information.
