Malariology

Selected Publications

Collections

There have been two major attempts to summarize all of malariology:

1949Malariology. A Comprehensive Survey of all Aspects of this Group of Diseases from a Global Standpoint, edited by Mark Boyd, is collection of 70 essays from 65 authors in two volumes and 1643 pages [1].

1988Malaria: Principles and Practice of Malariology, edited by Walter Wernsdorfer and Ian McGregor, is a collection of 57 essays from 68 authors in two-volumes and 1818 pages [2]

In addition, we recommend a few collections:

  • malERA – the malaria Eradication Research Agenda did two useful reviews of malariology for purposes of defining a research agenda.

  • WHO Expert Committees – Twenty WHO expert committees were convened from 1947-2000. These covered a variety of topics.
