Synopsis
Entozoa, An Introduction To The Study Of Helminthology: With Reference More Particularly To The Internal Parasites Of Man by Thomas Spencer Cobbold. This 19th?century British monograph surveys internal parasites (Entozoa) of humans and animals, presenting a meticulously catalogued collection of species, case histories, observers, and geographic notes. It juxtaposes authentic reports with suspect or deceptive entries, including long discussions of 'bots'—insect larvae reputed to inhabit bodies—and scrutinizes methods of specimen verification and taxonomy. Notable cases highlighted include Mary Riordan’s per anum passage of more than 1,200 larvae with corroborating Ascaris fragments, a living bot larva removed from Dr. Livingstone’s leg, and large-batch bot recoveries from large mammals near Africa. The volume emphasizes life cycles, transmission routes, and clinical–pathological implications, while warning of fictitious reports and the limits of certainty. A substantial bibliography and plates anchor the study, underscoring the entwined aims of human and veterinary helminthology in a Victorian scientific framework.
