Abstract This manual is well plannned for use by those for whom it was written, medical students and beginners in the study of parasitology.

He concentrates on the morphology and life cycle, with emphasis on their differential aspects. There is essentially no discussion on the clinical aspects of parasitic infections. The book is clearly written, with drawings of the parasites in their various stages of maturity.
