NICE ATLAS, CUT-THROAT PRICE,
By reviewer (Zurich, Switzerland.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Atlas of Human Parasitology (Hardcover)
The biggest obstacle in the way of this beautifully illustrated atlas is its rather unreasonable price-tag. Its publisher, (and authors), did overlook the fact that there are lots of moderately priced equivalents out there in the market.Nevertheless, anyone who goes ahead and purchase this atlas will appreciate its versatile accomplishments. It is very practical, and included high resolution photographs and micrographs. "Atlas of Human Parasitology" has a unique organization, which enabled it to provide comprehensive laboratory information. Every specimen it portrayed was labelled and analyzed in details. There is complementary taxonomical description in each case. This is a well-compiled atlas, but I still maintain that its price is a great barrier.

A very good bench atlas,
By
This review is from: Atlas of Human Parasitology (Hardcover)
I use this book on the bench in the microbiology department and I find the clarity and amount of photos extreemly useful. The other good features are the lifecycles and the methods present within the book. The book is sturdily bound and printed on high quality paper I would recomend this book to any laboratory, or person interested in parasitology.

This review is from: Atlas of Human Parasitology (Hardcover)
For anyone working in Diagnostic parasitology, this is simply the best reference available. Incredible colour plates, and importantly, keys for identification of unknowns and inclusion of exotic parasites.
