Inhaltsangabe

Explore the science of protozoa and their roles in health, disease, and ecology. This comprehensive volume surveys how researchers study protozoa that live inside plants and animals, and how these tiny organisms interact with their hosts. It offers practical guidance on methods, experimental design, and the evolving field of host–parasite relations, drawing from many specialists to build a broad, useful resource for students and professionals alike.

The book presents a clear framework for understanding protozoa, from the basics of their biology to the ways researchers investigate their life cycles, taxonomy, and impacts on hosts. It also highlights laboratory techniques, including culture methods, staining, and preparation of specimens, with attention to applications in medicine, veterinary science, and public health.


  • Foundational concepts that connect protozoology to host ecology and disease prevention.

  • Chapter‑level insights from experts on parasites of animals, humans, and insects.

  • Practical laboratory approaches for studying protozoa, including culture and staining methods.

  • Discussion of transmission, cross‑infection experiments, and the evolution of parasitism.



Ideal for readers of medical, veterinary, and biological sciences who need a grounded, research‑oriented overview of protozoa and their study.
