Book Description
Zoonotic diseases constitute a public health problem throughout the world. Addressing a little-studied area of veterinary and medical science, this book covers viral, bacterial, protozoan and helminth parasites transmitted between humans and dogs, discussing population management, control disease agents and human-dog relationships. Fully updated throughout, this new edition also includes chapters on benefits of the human-dog relationship and non-infectious disease issues with dogs. It is a valuable resource for researchers and students of veterinary and human medicine, microbiology, parasitology and public health.
