1. Historical Aspects of Echinococcosis 2. Biology and Systematics of Echinococcus 3. Phylogenetic Pattern, Evolutionary Processes and Species Delimitation in the Genus Echinococcus 4. Echinococcus-Host Interactions at Cellular and Molecular Levels 5. Ecology and Life Cycle Patterns of Echinococcus Species 6. Global Distribution of Alveolar and Cystic Echinococcosis

Summary: Echinococcus and Echinococcosis Part A and B present a complete synthesis on what is known about the parasitic cestode echinococcus and the disease it causes, echinococcosis (Hydatid Disease), also demonstrating that in addition to its medical, veterinary, and economic significance, it is an intriguing biological phenomenon. Both parts build on the success of a previous volume, Echinococcus and Hydatid Disease, edited by R.C.A. Thompson and A.J. Lymbery, and published by CAB International, that details the major advances that have taken place since its release. As such, it remains the only comprehensive account that embraces virtually all aspects of echinococcus and the disease it causes.
