Chapter 1: Parasites and Tiger Snakes -- Chapter 2: Tapeworms Down Underand elsewhere -- Chapter 3: Cysticercosis: the Ides of March -- Chapter 4: Trematodes: It was just a fluke -- Chapter 5: Schistosomiasis: Napoleon,snails and stalemate across the Taiwan Straits -- Chapter 6: Filariasis and elephantiasis:you can't go home again -- Chapter 7: River Blindness: and it was about time -- Chapter 8: Intestinal worms: parasitemysteries in wintry climes -- Chapter 9: Tissue helminths: Snails, rats, cobras and parasites in the brain -- Chapter 10: Intestinal protozoa: please pass the stool -- Chapter 11: Tissue protozoa: that cat will really drive me crazy one of these days -- Chapter 12: Blood protozoa: in search of the HolyGrail.

This book introduces the reader to the fascinating world of parasites that cause human disease. It is written in a first-person style relating anecdotes and personal encounters of parasites by the author. It tells stories about exotic parasites diseases, interesting factoids about the life history of unusual parasites species, and strange ways in which humans can become infected. However this is also a serious topic, as there is increasing movement of populations and goods occurring in a globalized world, resulting in previously exotic parasites being brought into new regions of the world. This book about parasite infections will be of interest to business travelers and tourists alike, and the book discusses simple common sense ways to avoid them.
