Writing in the journal Microbiology Today (Society for General Microbiology, UK), Simon L. Croft of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, UK, reviews a new book on Leishmania published by Caister Academic Press:

"The volume is up-to-date; the genome was published in 2005 and the most recent references in the book were published in 2007. There is a richness of information - chapters on gene regulation and the metabolome are particularly engaging ... Let us enjoy a volume that provides a valuable overview of the molecular biology and biochemistry of these fascinating parasites, their metabolic pathways, differentiation process, and their surface molecules"
