Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents findings from a study on the history of malaria in England. The author contrasts the former prevalence of malaria in the country with its near absence today. The absence of malaria in most parts of England in the present day has led some to believe that mosquitoes, which transmit the parasite that causes malaria, do not exist in England. The author shows this is incorrect, and that while malaria is no longer common, the mosquito species that carry the parasite are still present in the country, though they are less prevalent. The author's research indicates that the distribution of the mosquito Anopheles is not directly related to the former distribution of malaria in the country, as was hitherto assumed. He challenges the assumption that malaria was once much more common in England, and suggests that much of the disease that was once attributed to malaria was actually caused by other factors. The book concludes that the mosquito species that transmit malaria are widely distributed, and that malaria may re-emerge in England under certain circumstances.
