This volume represents a holistic approach to helminthological research, giving consideration to many ecological niches and interactions between helminths and their mammalian hosts. The book describes the biology and evolution of these endoparasitic helminths, as well as medical aspects, control, and treatment both in land and marine mammals. It discusses elements of wildlife management and conservation as they relate to helminth diversity. And, based on the geopraphic distribution of mammals, it offers a global perspective on helminths and their diseases.
