About this title

Synopsis

This guide summarizes threats from various medically important invertebrate groups worldwide, including physical pain and annoyance to disease transmission risk. It also summarizes personal protective measures that one should embrace to prevent attack and disease risk, and it briefly addresses treatments where applicable. Crucial for protecting the health of those who work with animals, it will serve as a strong reference as well for medical personnel working in high risk areas, travel planners, and other interested parties.

Store Description

Since 1977 The Odd Book has bought and sold interesting books and ephemera... and some apparently not that interesting. We're a member of the Antiquarian Booksellers' Association of Canada, and thereby affiliated with the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers. At the store in Wolfville, Nova Scotia, and online since '98, Jim Tillotson (founder) and Jim Gow (proprietor) combine their years of experience and occasional stupidity to provide a pretty good place to browse. Thanks for stopping by, and don't hesitate to be in touch.
