Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book presents an exploration into the discovery of parasites in human blood in 1901 and their subsequent identification as a new form of trypanosomiasis, a disease caused by parasitic protozoa flagellates. The author, one of the initial pioneers of this research, details the early investigation into the disease conducted in Senegambia, Africa, spanning from 1902-1903, which led to the discovery of human and horse trypanosomes in the region. The book delves into the characteristics and behaviors of these trypanosomes, their prevalence among local populations, and the range of symptoms they cause in humans, including a strange combination of fever and edema. The author discusses the clinical manifestations of the disease and the methods used to diagnose and study it, such as blood centrifugation, staining techniques, and animal inoculation experiments. Ultimately, this book highlights the significance of these discoveries in broadening our understanding of trypanosomiasis and its global impact on human and animal health, emphasizing the importance of continued research in the field of tropical medicine to combat this prevalent disease. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
