oWATCH OUT!! Parasites, invaders from the human environment, ages and ages ago, penetrated the world inside human beings. Since then, they have lived inside generations and generations of human beings of all ages, in all parts of the world.
Sly and sneaky in their dealings with human beings and totally dishonourable, parasites use underhand methods to enter the human body. And, like the ungrateful organisms thfi they are, whilst living in luxury, with free accomodation and food, they cause harm, illnesses and death. Parasites are believed to be the cause of about 60% of all human ailments!
Parasites are responsible for diarrhoeas and dysenteries which kill many thousands of children annually; they cause polio, Salmonella and E. coli infections, Staphyllococcus food poisoning, amoebic dysentery, hepatitis and giardiasis; the cholera bacterium kills millions in epidemics; flukes, tapeworms, hookworm, threadworm, pinworm, guinea worm are all parasites; malaria, sleeping sickness,...

oWATCH OUT!! Parasites, invaders from the human environment, ages and ages ago, penetrated the world inside human beings. Since then, they have lived inside generations and generations of human beings of all ages, in all parts of the world.
Sly and sneaky in their dealings with human beings and totally dishonourable, parasites use underhand methods to enter the human body. And, like the ungrateful organisms thfi they are, whilst living in luxury, with free accomodation and food, they cause harm, illnesses and death. Parasites are believed to be the cause of about 60% of all human ailments!
Parasites are responsible for diarrhoeas and dysenteries which kill many thousands of children annually; they cause polio, Salmonella and E. coli infections, Staphyllococcus food poisoning, amoebic dysentery, hepatitis and giardiasis; the cholera bacterium kills millions in epidemics; flukes, tapeworms, hookworm, threadworm, pinworm, guinea worm are all parasites; malaria, sleeping sickness, river blindness, elephantiasis and many other illnesses are due to parasites.
Many people are not aware of parasites and, unless infected, could not care less about them. But in this age of worldwide travel and strange life styles, all human beings are at risk from human parasites, unless they take protective care.
This book is a story of parasites, inhabitants of the human environment. It explains what they are, narrates their clever and fascinating life stories, tells how they infect us and suggests how we should protect ourselves against them. The story is worth reading.
The Author
Letitia E. Obeng, B Sc, M Sc, Ph D was previously the Director of the Regional Office of Africa of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and its Representative to the African Region. Prior to that, she had been the Director of a Research Institute and a University Lecturer in Zoology.
Her interest in parasitology took her through the intermediate hosts and vectors of some parasites to freshwater ecology of which she later promoted wide national awareness. She established the research Institute of Aquatic Biology within Ghana's Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) to become a basis for studies in hydrobiology and research on the ecology and environmental impact of the Volta Lake which, in the sixties, was the world's largest single man-made lake. In the Africa Region and on the boards and councils that she later served, the promotion of concern for health and environmental issues in development programs was her constant objective.
Aware that professionals of some disciplines and the public in general were not sufficiently informed on human parasites and how they cause infections, she embarked on the promotion of popular awareness of parasites which is the subject of this book.
Letitia Obeng who lives in Ghana is a Fellow of the Ghana Academy of Arts and Sciences and a widow with three children and grandchildren. Vissza
