What's eating you? People and parasites
In this book the author recounts the true and harrowing tales of his adventures with parasites, and in the process introduces readers to the intimately interwoven lives of host and parasite. In a narrative that is by turns frightening, disgusting, and funny, and through the stories of three-foot long worms and leeches feasting on soldiers in Vietnam, we come to understand parasite evolution and host-parasite physiology.
