Atlas of parasites in sheep
Atlas věnovaný nejdůležitějším parazitům a parazitům ovcí. Obsahuje řadu zdrojů (obrázky, grafy, tabulky, diagramy), které usnadňují identifikaci parazitů a pochopení jejich životních cyklů. Dvě kapitoly se zabývají metodami vyšetřování a antiparazitárními přípravky, čímž se tato kniha stává referenční literaturou ve svém oboru.

Atlas entirely dedicated to the most important parasites and parasitoses of sheep. This book has been written by a prestigious specialist in Parasitology with a broad experience in this species, and each chapter shows his extensive knowledge in the field. Based on a practical approach, it includes numerous resources (images, graphs, tables, flowcharts) to facilitate the identification of parasites and comprehension of their life cycles. In addition, two chapters address examination methods (best techniques to identify adults, eggs and larvae) and antiparasitic drugs (including groups and routes of administration), respectively, thus turning this book into a reference in its field. The atlas format makes the contents understandable and accessible to readers.
