The accumulation of new knowledge over the last several years has provided the impetus forthis, the 7th edition of Parasitic Diseases, the most widely distributed textbook of parasitic diseases in the world. By integrating all the salient information containedin over 1000 new references with the current descriptions of each pathogen, we continuethe never-ending process of evaluating, revising, and improving our understanding of thesenoxious organisms. New features to the 7th edition include a clinical summary section, additionallife cycle diagrams, and a pronouncer's guide to parasite names. Consideration of thebiographies of those notable contributors to the field of parasitology has also been extended.Parasites Without Borders continues to make available, free of charge, the PDF version ofParasitic Diseases in both English and Spanish editions.Ultimately, it is through the education of medical students, physicians, and parasitologists, and vigilance of commitment that we can hope to improve the lives of hundreds of millionsof less fortunate individuals, helping them to live longer and more productive lives. The7th edition of Parasitic Diseases is dedicated to this premise. We invite you to join us inthis global effort
