Giardia is a parasitic protozoan which is attracting considerable interest worldwide. It can cause severe gastrointestinal problems in humans and has also been reported in a number of domestic and wild mammals. This book is based on a conference held in Western Australia in December 1992 and addresses major issues and new developments concerning Giardia and giardiasis. Many of these have attracted some controversy recently among parasitologists, for whom this book will represent a comprehensive review of current advances.
