这项工作汇编了有关佛罗里达州野生哺乳动物寄生虫病的所有已知信息，具有重要意义，因为它是为数不多的按宿主而不是按病原体排列这些数据的研究之一。佛罗里达州丰富的哺乳动物群由96种组成，其中85种是本地的，11种是引进到该州或扩大了它们的活动范围。这本书包含的信息疾病的代理人，自然元素，化学污染物，和环境条件，要么可以或做影响健康和疾病的61本地和8个非本地物种，包括这样的濒危哺乳动物，如佛罗里达豹和海牛。这项工作还涉及人与家畜之间传播疾病的公共卫生问题。虽然有些信息来自已发表的文献，但其中很大一部分是从许多个人和组织的个人文件、笔记和报告中挑选出来的。《寄生虫与疾病》是一本重要的参考书，对于哺乳学家、种群生态学家、兽医、流行病学家、昆虫学家、寄生虫学家、微生物学家、病理学家、野生动物生物学家以及所有其他对佛罗里达州脆弱的环境做出管理或保护决定的人来说，这本书应该是必不可少的资源。
This work, a compilation of all known information on parasites diseases of the wild mammals of Florida, is significant because it is one of the few studies in which such data are arranged by host rather than by disease agent. Florida's rich mammalian fauna is made up of 96 species, 85 of them native and 11 that have been introduced into or have expanded their ranges into the state. The book contains information on the disease agents, natural elements, chemical contaminants, and environmental conditions that either can or do influence the health and diseases of 61 native and 8 nonnative species, including such endangered mammals as the Florida panther and the manatee. The work also deals with the public health considerations of diseases transmitted between humans and domesticated animals. Though some of the information comes from published literature, a significant portion of it was culled from personal files, notes, and reports of numerous individuals and organizations. A major reference work, ""Parasites and Diseases"" should be an essential resource for mammalogists, population ecologists, veterinarians, epidemiologists, entomologists, parasitologists, microbiologists, pathologists, wildlife biologists, and all others who make management or conservation decisions about Florida's fragile environment.
