With the rapid growth of parasitology there is also a 

 growing demand for laboratory instruction in this field. 

 The author's greatest desire during the time that he has 

 been engaged in teaching this subject has been to place 

 the work upon a good systematic footing, giving it 

 proper rank with other phases of applied biology. The 

 exercises in this volume are based upon two standard 

 courses given at the University of California during the 

 last four years. These courses are Human Parasitology 

 (first half-year) and Veterinary Parasitology (second 

 half-year). Each exercise has had careful testing in 

 the laboratory and is practical. 



The aim of this guide is to give the student a wide, 

 practical view of the field, so that he may have a fair 

 grasp of the general subject in its application to the 

 health and well-being of man and beast. The exercises 

 are in sufficient detail to enable the student to continue 

 work on some specific group or species if he so chooses.
