Based on the cover of the book, I thought this would be a bit of a light read with intriguing factoids, but this was a surprisingly well-researched compilation of information on parasites. Disconcerting, but very educational. As a cat owner, I was a particular fan of the Toxoplasma gondii parasite. Fascinating!
I will note that, like many educational texts, this is a bit of a slow read. However, for anyone interested in parasites, this information is down-to-earth and accessible. A very good reference for learning about these fascinating but reviled organisms.
Note: I received this book as an ARC. It is scheduled to be released November 12, 2024.
