Animal Parasites and Human Disease


Book Description

Excerpt from Animal Parasites and Human Disease It is the belief of the writer that one of the most pressing needs of the present time is the education of the people as a whole in the subjects of vital importance with which this book deals, and an increased interest in this field of scientific work. Scientists are the leaders of the world, and should constantly endeavor to keep a little ahead of the lay population who follow them. It is, however, important that the leaders should not only blaze the trail, but should make it sufficiently easy to find so that the followers may not fall too far behind. In the intense fascination of exploring the trail, and the eager impulse to press on to newer and ever newer fields, the scientist is in danger of forgetting the handicaps of his followers, and of leaving them hopelessly in the rear. Popular ignorance of many important facts of parasitology and preventive medicine, even facts which have been common bases of operation for scientists for many years, is deplorable. To a large extent, however, the scientists themselves are to blame, for in their enthusiasm for discovery they have forgotten to make it possible for the laity to reap the benefits of their investigations. There is even a tendency to belittle the efforts of those workers who devote their energies toward assisting the general public to keep in touch with scientific progress. A book or paper which collects the work of others, models it into a connected whole, and makes readily available what before was widely scattered and accessible only to a skilled "library-prowler," is stigmatized by the term "mere compilation." It is the firm belief of the writer that this is not only unjust but unwise. No less mental and physical energy, if not perhaps even more, is necessary for efficient "mere compilation" than for the addition of new facts to scientific knowledge, and the value to civilization, which must be the ultimate criterion by which all scientific work is judged, must be equally as great, if not greater.

Comparative Medicine


Book Description

This book highlights the most significant diseases for humans and their dogs, cats and horses. The examples discussed, which include allergies, osteoporosis, cancer and many more, illustrate that humans and their companion animals may in fact develop similar diseases. The reader - whether expert or interested lay - can thus directly compare between human and animal patients. The animal patient thereby represents a natural disease model, which besides the experimental models, is urgently needed to improve the therapeutic options for both humans and animals.
