The chapters were written by renowned Chinese medical researchers and are supplemented by results obtained in German antiparasitic research projects. Parasites and emerging diseases are a major threat of our time, which is characterized by an enormous increase in the size of the human population and by an unbelievably rapid globalization that has led to the daily transport of millions of humans and containers with goods from one end of the earth to the other. Furthermore the slow but constant global warming offers new opportunities for many agents of diseases to become established in new areas. Therefore it is essential that we develop precautions in order to avoid epidemics or even pandemics in overcrowded megacities or at the large-scale farm animal confinements that are needed to secure a steady flow of food in the crowded regions of the world. Of course intensive research in the field of chemotherapy since 1900 has produced unbelievable breakthroughs in therapies for formerly untreatable and thus deadly diseases. However, a large number of untreatable diseases remain, as well as a constantly growing number of agents of disease that have developed resistances to standard chemical compounds. 000695737 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed October 7, 2013). 000695737 650_0 $$aParasitic diseases$$xAlternative treatment. 000695737 650_0 $$aMedicine, Chinese. 000695737 7001_ $$aMehlhorn, Heinz,$$eeditor of compilation. 000695737 7001_ $$aWu, Zhongdao,$$eeditor of compilation. 000695737 7001_ $$aYe, Bin,$$eeditor of compilation. 000695737 830_0 $$aParasitology research monographs ;$$vv.6. 000695737 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000695737 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-39824-7$$zOnline Access 000695737 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:695737$$pGLOBAL_SET 000695737 980__ $$aEBOOK 000695737 980__ $$aBIB 000695737 982__ $$aEbook 000695737 983__ $$aOnline 000695737 994__ $$a92$$bISE
