WALLIKER, Institute of Animal Genetics, West Mains Road, Edinburgh EH9 3JN, Scotland This Page Intentionally Left Blank PREFACE This volume of Advances in Parasitology continues the policy established by Ben Dawes and developed by Professor Lumsden, of attempting to review any aspect of parasitology in which significant developments are being, or have recently been, made. We feel that the traditional division of parasitology into protozoology and helminthology is becoming increasingly artificial. As more emphasis is laid on the subject’s ecological aspects-including inter- relationships between parasites and their hosts-and on the cell biology of the parasites themselves, the common principles resulting from a shared life-style and a common eukaryotic nature, are becoming more evident. We hope to include in future volumes, papers dealing with general principles of parasitism, not subdivided on the basis of uni- or multicellularity and not necessarily restricted even to eukaryotic organisms. Meanwhile, in the present volume, the traditional division is maintained, though our first criterion-topicality and significance-is, we believe, fully met by all the included papers. Perhaps the most controversial contribution is that by Evans and Ellis, questioning views which have been held more-or- less uncritically since the work of Muriel Robertson early this century. 1983 J.
