Abstract:	"Parasitic Diseases of Wild Birds" provides thorough coverage of major parasite groups affecting wild bird species. Broken into four sections covering protozoa, heminths, leeches, and arthropod parasites, this volume provides reviews of the history, disease, epizootiology, pathology, and population impacts caused by parasitic disease. Taking a unique approach that focuses on the effects of the parasites on the host, "Parasitic Diseases of Wild Birds" fills a unique niche in animal health literature.
