Paperback. 255 pagina's. Als nieuw. Jeukende bulten en slapeloze nachten. Muggen drijven menigeen tot wanhoop. En met het speeksel dat ze tijdens een bloedmaaltijd injecteren, kunnen ze levensbedreigende ziekten overbrengen. Het veranderende klimaat en de toenemende globalisering zorgen ervoor dat ook Nederland zich in de toekomst moet wapenen tegen invasies van nieuwe muggensoorten en tropische aandoeningen. In Mug duikt entomoloog Bart Knols in de fascinerende en genadeloze wereld van deze bloedzuigers. Hij beschrijft hoe muggen het verloop van de wereldgeschiedenis hebben bepaald, hoe onderzoekers ontdekten welke rol muggen spelen bij ziekteoverdracht, en hoe de wetenschap naarstig zoekt naar nieuwe bestrijdingsmethoden: van klamboes en schimmels tot genetische modificatie en sterilisatie van mannetjesmuggen met behulp van radioactieve straling. Mug beantwoordt muggenvragen als: beschermt het eten van knoflook of het drinken van bier tegen muggen? En waarom wordt de een altijd gebeten en de ander nooit? Knols beschrijft ook zijn eigen onderzoek waarin hij ontdekte dat Afrikaanse malariamuggen verzot zijn op zweetvoeten en het aroma van Limburgse kaas. Een ontdekking waarvoor hij in 2006 de Ig Nobelprijs ontving. Ook zijn onbegrip over de bureaucratie en laksheid bij overheidsinstanties om muggen te bestrijden, zowel in Nederland als in ontwikkelingslanden, komt ter sprake. 777g.…

Hardback. Etat : New. 1st. "This is a multi-authored book concerning the perceived threat and recorded increase of emerging pests and vector-borne diseases affecting man and animals in Europe.Historically, Europe suffered from numerous pests and vector-borne diseases, including yellow fever, malaria, plague and typhus. Introduction of hygienic measures, drugs and vector control caused the disappearance of many of these diseases from Europe. In the (sub)tropics, however, many of these diseases still thrive, causing serious health problems for humans and animals. Increased trade, leading to animal and human movement and climate change cause reason to assume that several of these diseases might become re-established or allow 'new' diseases and pests to be introduced in Europe. The recent outbreaks of bluetongue virus in North-western Europe highlights this concern, requiring an effective surveillance systems for the early detection of pests and vector-borne diseases.In 24 chapters this book provides examples of the most likely pests and diseases affecting man and animals in Europe, with emphasis on ecological factors favouring these diseases and methods for prevention and intervention. The authors are recognized experts in specific fields. All chapters are peer reviewed.". …
