      abstract = {This book offers the first comprehensive review of  parasitic Crustacea, which are among the most successful  and diverse parasites. Starting with an introductory  chapter, followed by an historic overview and  topic-specific chapters, each presenting a different aspect  of parasitic crustacean biology, it enables readers to gain  a better understanding of how these parasites function and  allows direct comparisons between the different parasitic  crustacean groups. The authors also discuss, in depth, the  adaptations and interactions that have made parasitic  Crustacea as successful as they are today, covering topics  ranging from the history of their discovery, their  biodiversity, phylogeny, evolution and life strategies to  their role as vectors, or hosts of other organisms, and  their significance in ecological processes. Consisting of  ten chapters from leading international experts in the  field, this volume offers a one-stop resource for all  researchers, lecturers, students and practitioners.},
