The field of Parasitology has seen tremendous progress in the last 2-3 decades with the advent of molecular biology and its application to the study of parasites. This has opened new vistas in the understanding of the taxonomy, pathogenesis, immunological mechanisms of many parasites, along with designing of improved diagnostic tests and application of molecular epidemiology in tracking and controlling these diseases. Parija’s Immunologic Diagnostics in Parasitology: Principles Techniques and Applications is an attempt to cover the existing knowledge along with the newer findings so that up-to-date information can be condensed in one volume.The book has been divided into three parts. Part 1 deals with the background information on immunological techniques including history, principles, sample collection and specimen processing, and quality assurance of these tests. Part II covers detailed discussion about all the important existing immunological test formats along with step-by-step description for development of experimental or in-house tests. Part III includes chapters on some of the recent tests which are gaining importance like point-of-care tests and immuno-PCR. There are four annexures which are on designing of a serological laboratory, commercial suppliers of immunodiagnostic kits for parasitic diseases, and the list of suppliers for biologicals, chemicals, and labwares.Parija’s Immunologic Diagnostics in Parasitology: Principles Techniques and Applications is an effort to inform and engage a wide spectrum of audience, which include postgraduate or doctoral students and faculty members across the disciplines of Medical and, Veterinary sciences. The present volume is intended both as a textbook and a procedure handbook.

This book covers all essential aspects of writing scientific research articles, presenting eighteen carefully selected titles that offer essential, “must-know” content on how to write high-quality articles.

This book on Thesis Writing for Master’s and Ph.D. program focuses on the difficulties students encounter with regard to choosing a guide; selecting an appropriate research title considering the available resources; conducting research; and ways to overcome the hardships they face while researching, writing and preparing their dissertation for submission. Thesis writing is an essential skill that medical and other postgraduates are expected to learn during their academic career as a mandatory partial requirement in order to receive the Master’s degree. However, at the majority of medical schools, writing a thesis is largely based on self-learning, which adds to the burden on students due to the tremendous amount of time spent learning the writing skills in addition to their exhausting clinical and academic work.  Due to the difficulties faced during the early grooming years and lack of adequate guidance, acquiring writing skills continues to be a daunting task for most students. This book addresses these difficulties and deficiencies and provides comprehensive guidance, from selecting the research title to publishing in a scientific journal.

Effective communication is at the heart of medical profession, whether it is patient-doctor communication, interpersonal communication, or communication with the scientific and research community.

This textbook, which is the first volume in the series Microbial Zoonoses, provides a comprehensive overview of the diagnosis, treatment and control of zoonotic parasitic diseases.

The fourth edition of “Textbook of Microbiology and Immunology” is an extensively revised edition , a healthy mixture of the old and the new contents. Many of the old traditional chapters have been retained with addition of new information along with the inclusion of new chapters more in line with the on-going changes in the syllabus and concepts in Medical Microbiology .While doing so, this book has blended the traditional organism-based learning and a syndrome based approach to infectious disease, together with the introduction of new and modified chapters incorporating the latest information in this field.The book provides an extensive coverage of fundamental topics in general and medical microbiology. The book also lays due emphasis on clinical microbiology with special focus on syndrome based approach to infectious diseases. It includes the basic concepts of microbiology as well as the recent updates and developments in the field of medical microbiology. All the topics havebeen incorporated in seven major sections: General microbiology, Immunology, Bacteriology, Virology, Mycology, and Applied and Clinical Microbiology.The dynamic nature of medical sciences with new guidelines and new diagnostic methods coming into the arena necessitates the incorporation of new information in each new edition of a book. This facet has been addressed with the inclusion of recent information on the various aspects of microbiology, infectious diseases and immunology, in the fourth edition of the Textbook of Microbiology and  Immunology ,which makes it one of the most authoritative and informative textbooks in medical microbiology.The book is an effort to inform and engage a wide spectrum of readers including medical students , both undergraduates and postgraduates, and residents, and faculty. It aims to be a must-have companion book for graduate and advanced undergraduate as well as postgraduate students of medical microbiology, general and allied microbiology, and of immunology.
