"Parassitologia e malattie parassitarie in medicina veterinaria" è un libro di testo rivolto agli studenti del Corso di Laurea Magistrale in Medicina Veterinaria e dei Corsi post-laurea di alta formazione, al fine di fornire conoscenze scientifiche consolidate ed in linea con la moderna professione veterinaria. Per tale motivo gli argomenti trattati sono stati il più possibile schematizzati seguendo, relativamente ad ogni parassita, una struttura consequenziale a partire dagli aspetti ezio-patogenetici fino alle manifestazioni cliniche ed alle possibilità diagnostiche, profilattiche e terapeutiche. Il testo comprende anche capitoli specifici dedicati ad aspetti salienti della patologia parassitaria quali quelli epidemiologici, immunopatologici, socio-economici e di Sanità pubblica veterinaria, in linea con la moderna visione "One health-One medicine". Per rendere più completa la formazione degli studenti, nel testo è stata inserita una sezione dedicata alla Micologia, visto il costante aumento delle problematiche sanitarie legate alle infezioni fungine, sia nei pets sia in alcuni settori zootecnici. I diversi capitoli sono stati arricchiti di materiale iconografico e di disegni schematici relativi alla morfo-biologia dei parassiti.

Il libro è organizzato in tre parti: una prima fornisce concetti di base, indispensabili per la comprensione di informazioni relative ad argomenti specifici della materia; una seconda prende in esame gli agenti tossici più frequentemente responsabili di intossicazioni nelle diverse specie animali ed, infine, una terza riporta nozioni basilari di tossicologia alimentare, importante anello di congiunzione tra la Tossicologia Umana e Veterinaria. L'opera è principalmente dedicata agli studenti, che sempre seguono con serietà, impegno e passione questo insegnamento, ai quali abbiamo cercato di offrire un testo agile e di facile consultazione. Questo libro potrà per loro risultare utile anche in seguito quando si troveranno a svolgere la loro professione e potrà rappresentare una base per l'utilizzo di testi più ampi e mirati, pubblicazioni scientifiche, riviste e monografie.

Il libro è strutturato per aiutare il libero professionista a trovare rapidamente l'informazione di cui necessita, facilitando
