Written by one of the pioneers of the field, the book provides unique information on all known host types of T. gondii . It distills the voluminous and potentially confusing scientific literature that has grown geometrically in the 20 years since the publication of the first edition into an easily accessible, well-referenced resource. In addition to basic scientific data, this volume provides methods for detection and treatment, includes a chapter on marine mammals, and explores the prevalence of toxoplasmosis in pregnant women. The new edition of this groundbreaking work is the only volume to thoroughly cover toxoplasmosis of animals and humans in one source.
