Atlas of Tropical Medicine and Parasitology 6th edition: Text with CD-ROM by Wallace Peters and Geoffrey Pasvol is your perfect visual guide to diagnosing these diseases. The Sixth Edition of this internationally acclaimed atlas is the most comprehensive ever, with extensively revised text and more than 1200 stunning images.
This book is an excellent companion to the study of tropical medicine and clinical parasitology for the beginner as well as the experienced reader. The pictures, graphs and maps are very good and this edition has been updated and expanded significantly with new illustrations, maps, updates of life cycles of parasites, relevant x-rays, clinical pictures and illustrations of parasites and hosts. A perfect companion to a textbook of tropical medicine. The resolution of the pictures on the CD-ROM are, however, a bit too low to enjoy fully for eyes. The book is recommended for the postgraduate courses in tropical medicine and medical parasitology at the University of Oslo.
