Description

Explore the complex world of parasitic infections with this academic text from Springer. Helminths represent one of the most diverse and widespread groups of parasites affecting both humans and animals across the globe. While many of the 100 reported human species result in asymptomatic or mild infections, approximately 20 species present significant public health challenges by causing severe or fatal illnesses. This book examines the impact of these parasites within the African context. In many regions, parasitic helminths lead to massive economic losses that hinder rural development and slow down overall economic growth. The text also addresses the nature of zoonoses, which are diseases naturally transmitted between vertebrates and humans. This resource provides essential information for medical practitioners and researchers studying infectious and contagious diseases in Africa.
