PARASITOLOGY FOR MEDICAL LABORATORY TECHNICIANS is the ideal text to guide readers in understanding the background, source, recovery, and identification of a well-representative range of organisms that commonly affect humans. This book organizes a complex set of topics into an understandable and easy-to-read format that will help readers learn more about parasitic infections and how to effectively collect and prepare samples, aiding in the diagnosis of parasitosis. The subtle differences between similar parasitic organisms are all explained in a simple and easily understood manner, increasing the likelihood that readers will be able to recover the parasites, prepare them for identification and, subsequently, ensure effective treatment.

About the Author:
John W. Ridley, Ph.D., RN, MT (ASCP), has served as a medical technologist, trainer, educator, manager, and program administrator throughout a varied, 30-year career with a strong emphasis on medical laboratory occupations. After serving as a patient care technician and respiratory therapy assistant, Dr. Ridley entered military service, became a combat medic, and then trained and served as a medical laboratory technican at Brooke Army Medical Center, Fort Sam Houston, Texas. Following his military service, Dr. Ridley earned a bachelor of science degree in zoology and a master's of education degree from the University of Georgia. To complete his education, Dr. Ridley earned a Ph.D. in health and human services, with an emphasis in psychology, and became a registered nurse. He currently serves as director of medical laboratory technology at West Central Technical School in Waco, Georgia, and is the author of several textbooks on clinical laboratory science topics.
Review:
"This manuscript is written for both technicians and technologists. It provides both didactic and technical protocols in one text. The study of medical parasitology is documented from a historical perspective to the current date along with the tedious, accurate identification of pathogenic versus nonpathogenic organisms. This textbook is becoming available to replace the typically used textbooks in clinical laboratory science programs." Mildred K. Fuller, Ph.D., MT (ASCP), Norfolk State University

"As a professional microbiologist, I found this book to be interesting and easy to read. The book covers many of the parasites that are clinically relevant without being to technical or fact heavy." - Tobi L Camilli BS, ASCP(M), University of New Mexico, Gallup Branch
