From the reviews of the second edition: “In this book Jerome Goddard, a medical entomologist, gives a brief summary of many … conditions and the vectors that transmit them. … I think this is a useful book … and I shall use it as a quick reference source when I need to refresh my memory on many of the conditions described. It is also readable and accessible for the non-specialist, potentially suiting clinicians, nurse specialists, and environmental health practitioners.” (Ian F. Burgess, Public Health, Vol. 123, September/October, 2009) “Sections dealing with differential diagnosis for some infections, and treatment is dealt with briefly; too briefly to be useful to physicians … . ‘to provide physicians as well as entomologists and other interested parties with a reference on the biological and entomological aspects of infectious diseases’. … interests of most physicians and entomologists. … I applaud the original articles as a means of informing a more general audience of physicians and entomologists … this book meets it objectives as a work of reference.” (Harold Townson, Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, Vol. 103, October, 2009)
