Críticas:

From the reviews:
"This is a very welcome publication that should find a wide readership; there are no competing books that cover the subjects of medical and veterinary entomology so well."
(Annals of Tropical Medicine & Parasitology, 95:1, 2001)
"...it is written in a readable and easily intelligible language. This is especially important for students whose mother tongue is not English. In fact this book is one of the best textbooks I have ever read. I have no doubt this book will become the standard textbook in medical entomology not only in the United States and Enlgish-speaking countries but all over the world."
(European Journal of Entomology, 98:150, 2001)
"This reviewer finds Eldridge and Edman's Medical Entomology the most attractive for students in terms of price, quality of publication, organization and writing style, and the powerful assemblage of authors (most of the current authorities in the field of medical entomology in the United States). Other textbooks have their strengths and target audiences. For advanced students, this is the most complete book currently available."
(Journal of Medical Entomology)

Reseña del editor:

This book is designed primarily as a textbook for graduate and postgraduate courses in Medical, Public Health and Veterinary Entomology. Its uniqueness is that its emphasis is on disease as opposed to arthropods. It includes general discussions of epidemiology, transmission, disease control, vector control and disease surveillance. In addition, it contains chapters oriented towards the many specific arthropod-borne diseases. Furthermore, the book discusses the many direct impacts that parasitic insects have on human and animal health. The arthropods themselves are dealt with in two introductory chapters.
