The present book describes the common human diseases caused by the blood-infecting protozoans, and their diagnosis and treatment. This book compiles the latest literature on the genetic diversity, therapeutics, and drug resistance in protozoan parasites, with a focus on malaria parasites: Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax. It explores the association of parasite genetic makeup with drug resistance. The book covers the mechanisms of drug resistance, its spread, and factors affecting drug resistance. The book facilitates research, design, and development of therapeutics against malarial parasites. The book is meant for post-graduate students of microbiology, parasitology, and medicine, as well as healthcare workers, medical practitioners, public health staff, and policymakers.
