Reviews

Without question, this book is a very welcome addition to the field of diagnostic parasitology. I would certainly recommend it for purchase by all clinical laboratories involved in microbiological and parasitological diagnosis. Leslie H. Chappell, University of Aberdeen, Parasitology Today, vol. 12, no. 6, 1996 This book is another excellent addition to the Practical Approach series. It is a good laboratory reference manual for use by field and health workers, diagnostic laboratories and researchers in both developing and developed countries and would be useful to students of medical parasitology. Anne Kaukas, SGM Quarterly, February 1997
