Medical Parasitology

PREFACE
This lecture note is useful to students of health science, medicine and other
students and academicians. It is believed to provide basic knowledge to students
on medical parasitology. It also serves as a good reference to parasitologists,
graduate students, biomedical personnel, and health professionals. It aims at
introducing general aspects of medically important parasites prevalent in the
tropics and in Ethiopia in particular. It is our belief that this note will contribute
much in alleviating the shortage of Parasitology texts.
Students preparing to provide health care in their profession need solid
foundation of basic scientific knowledge of etiologic agents of diseases, their
diagnosis and management. To face the fast growing trends of scientific
information, students require getting education relevant to what they will be doing
in their future professional lives. Books that are of manageable size are
increasingly important in helping students learn the seemingly overwhelming
amount of information they must absorb.
