1. Naming
2. Geographic distribution and epidemiology
3. Morphology, biology and life cycle
4. Disease symptoms
5. Diagnosis
6. Infection pathways
7. Prophylaxis
8. Incubation period
9. Prepatency
10. Patency
11. Therapeutic options

Numerous tables, diagrams and over 200 colorful illustrations highlight the main aspects of parasitic infestations and present suitable control measures. Moreover, 60 questions help to test readers’ theoretical knowledge of the field.
