This book provides an in-depth analysis of neglected parasitic zoonoses of helminthic origin, offering a comprehensive understanding of their epidemiology, pathology, and implications for public health. With a focus on the One Health perspective, it delves into the intricate interactions between animals, humans, and the environment, emphasizing the critical role of interdisciplinary collaboration in addressing these diseases. The chapters further explore the relationships between parasites, hosts, and ecosystems to identify potential risk factors and transmission patterns. The subsequent chapters cover the life cycles, transmission dynamics, and potential control measures of neglected zoonoses of nematode, cestode, and trematode origin. The book also presents phenotype of these parasites for improved identification, molecular epidemiology, and diagnostic approaches ranging from conventional to contemporary. Additionally, the chapters examine immune-prophylactic attempts, culminating in effective treatment and control strategies to combat these overlooked diseases. This book is intended for researchers, scientists, epidemiologists, veterinarians, and healthcare professionals.Provides an in-depth analysis of neglected parasitic zoonoses, offering valuable insights into their epidemiology, pathology, and public health implications.Focusing on the One Health approach, it explores intricate interactions between animals, humans, and the environment.Examines relationships between parasites, hosts, and ecosystems, identifying potential risk factors and transmission patternsDiscusses life cycles, transmission dynamics, and potential control measures of nematode, cestode, and trematode zoonosesExplores improved identification and molecular epidemiology techniques, from conventional to contemporary methods
