解説

This book covers the key biological and public health aspects of schistosomiasis, a neglected tropical disease (NTD) caused by the parasite Schistosoma. It is both a comprehensive and quick reference source, including contributions from trematode genomics to infection control and outreach programs.

Readers will easily find information on all relevant subjects such as parasite taxonomy, epidemiology, and physiology, as well as research findings from malacology on snail hosts and the parasites' existence in non-human animals. In addition, medical chapters are devoted to the pathogenesis, immunology, symptoms, and diagnosis of schistosomiasis.

Finally, the expert authors touch on treatment and other intervention options, making this work a valuable reference within the WHO strategy for schistosomiasis control (the neglected tropical diseases road map 2021-2030) and the targets of SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being) to reduce the number of people requiring interventions against NTDs. The book is rounded off by a captivating overview on contemporary and future prospects for disease control, outreach programs, and public health implications.

All contents are enriched with most recent insights from research, teaching and practice on schistosomiasis. As such, students, scientists, biologists, public health practitioners and all interested in the natural history of this medically important disease will appreciate the present collection.
