520 | 3 | _aThis book, which consists of 11 chapters, highlights the major impact of invasive alien plants and animals on human health. This includes not only direct effects through contact with the species via bites, wounds and disease, but also indirect effects caused by changes induced in ecosystems by invasive species, such as more water hyacinth increasing mosquito levels and thereby the potential for malaria. The book covers a wide range of case studies from different taxa (animals and plants), and provides an overview of the diverse impacts of invasive species on health in developed and developing countries. It covers invasive (and poisonous) plants, marine species, scorpions, spiders and other arachnids, ticks and dust mites, insects (e.g. bugs, ants, wasps, and moths), mosquitoes and other diptera, freshwater species (invertebrates and fishes), amphibians and reptiles, birds and mammals. Also, climate change effects on alien species relevant to human health are discussed. The broad spectrum of the analysed case studies will ensure the appeal of the book to a wide public, including researchers of biological invasions, physicians, policy-makers and managers, and students of invasive species in ecology, animal and plant biology and public health medicine. | |
