Biological Science and General Biology Soshisha Bunko / tapeworm, Coronavirus, HPV, Echinococcus, Ixodidae. Where were parasites that exploit other organisms born, how did they evolve, and how did they live to this day? Where did humans meet them, and how did they influence their expansion? Beyond that, is there a future in which humans, animals, and parasites coexist? An energetic Northern European biologist, Toshiaki Kuramochi (Director of Meguro Parasitological Museum), introduces human history from the perspective of evolutionary biology, and depicts the grand evolutionary journey of parasites beyond the barriers of virology, bacteriology, and parasitology. Introduction : Evolutionary Biologists' Views on Infectious Diseases and Parasites 1 Why Infectious Diseases Exist 2 From Where Infectious Diseases Come From 3 Why People Have So Many Infectious Diseases 4 Why Some Infectious Diseases Are Dangerous and Others Are Not 5 Why Certain Infectious Diseases Cannot Be Eradicated 7 Why New Infectious Diseases Are Born One After Another 8 How Environment Influences the Spread of Infectious Diseases 9 Coronavirus Pandemic Wreaks the World 10 Can People Exist Without Infectious Diseases?
