Toxoplasma gondii, once an obscure protozoan parasite, has recently become the focus of intense research, both as a serious pathogen in its own right and as a model member of the phylum Apicomplexa. Written by internationally acclaimed researchers, this is the first book to provide a comprehensive coverage of this important parasite from both the host and pathogen perspectives.The authors of this book describe in detail the biological characteristics that makeT. gondiiand related apicomplexans the most common and successful group of parasites on earth. Essential reading for all researchers working withToxoplasmaand related apicomplexans,Plasmodium, Cryptosporidiumand other protozoan parasites.Ajioka, James A. is the author of 'Toxoplasma Molecular and Cellular Biology', published 2007 under ISBN 9781904933342 and ISBN 1904933343.
