This edited volume covers all aspects of the Neglected Tropical Disease Scabies. The contributions are organised into four themed parts. The first part reviews the history of the disease and its treatment and management, part two is dedicated to parasitology and basic research on the disease causing parasite, Sarcoptes scabei. Epidemiology and disease burden including public health issues are discussed in the third part in detail. The last section of the book is covering clinical manifestation and management.
This volume is the first one of its kind, providing an insight into all aspects of the skin disease which is causing considerable morbidity and mortality.
