Medical Entomology: A Textbook on Public Health and Veterinary Problems Caused by Arthropods

Medical Entomology: Public Health and Veterinary Vector Science

Medical Entomology: Public Health and Veterinary Vector Science is a comprehensive reference that explores the role of arthropods in the transmission of diseases affecting both humans and animals. Focusing on vector-borne diseases rather than individual arthropod species, the book examines epidemiology, disease transmission, surveillance, prevention, and vector control strategies. It is an essential resource for students, researchers, veterinarians, and public health professionals seeking a deeper understanding of medical and veterinary entomology.
