DEDICATED
To Dr. J. Desmond Smyth, who kindled a parasitological fire; to Dr. Arlie C. Todd, who fanned the flames; to Dr. Ashton C. Cuckler, chemotherapist par excellence, who suggested testing a drug against Trichinella and thereby induced an addiction to the affairs of that worm; to the late Dr. S. Emanuel Gould and Dr. Zbigniew Kozar, whose encouragement kept the addiction from waning; to S.J.C. and the late R.J .C., who made it all possible; and to Mary, Jenifer, Peter, and Betsy, who make it all worthwhile.

Preface
I have cured the Empress of Boolampoo of a Cramp she got in her tongue by eating
Pork and buttered parsnips . ... The Earl of Rochester- 17th Century
As the modern outpouring of biological information continues at everincreasing pace, two kinds of reviews are needed to keep the torrent in manageable form. The one assumes a working knowledge of the field in question and tries to bring the reader up to date by reporting and assessing the recent developments. The other attempts to assimilate the recent developments into a coherent restatement of the whole subject. This book falls in the latter category.
Trichinella spiralis infection has been in the medical and biological limelight for more than a century, and interest in it continues unabated-as evidenced by what Norman Stoll called the "perennially exuberant" research on trichinosis. The infection seems to offer something for almost everyone. For the physician, it offers a patient with painful and sometimes fatal disease; for the public-health official, a threat to the commonweal; for the experimental biologist, a life cycle that is unique yet easily and rapidly maintained in the laboratory; for the field ecologist, a symbiont with an affinity for an extraordinary range of wildlife species; for the pork producer, a poorer profit; for the cook, a culinary constraint; and for the diner, a dietary danger. Yet, despite this breadth of interest, and the cascade of new data, the only comprehensive books on the subject in English are those of S.E. Gould, published in 1945 and 1970. Although his work on trichinosis
Xl
XII PREFACE
was virtually an avocation, Dr. Gould's passion for the subject enabled him to produce landmark treatises. His 1970 volume, Trichinosis in Man and Animals, with contributions from many authors, remains a treasurehouse of information. But the past dozen years have brought major new findings in all aspects of trichinosis, and it is time for another stock-taking. This volume offers a fresh synthesis of old and new information, and it is hoped that the work will serve as a succinct yet comprehensive source of information on Trichinella as parasite and pathogen.
The use of the term trichinosis, rather than trichinellosis, will dismay some readers. Adoption of trichinellosis would have been baffling to others. It can be argued that as Trichinella was gradually becoming accepted as the correct name for the nematode genus Trichina, so trichinosis should have become superseded by trichinellosis. But trichinosis had already spread from the technical language to the vernacular, and, as in the case of malaria and coccidiosis, a new lexicon was not needed to clarify what was already perfectly clear to the scientist and layman alike. (In 1911, Ambrose Bierce's The Devil's Dictionary contained the entry: Trichinosis, n. The pig's reply to proponents of porcophagy.) We have two defensible words for disease caused by Trichinella, and with some misgiving we have chosen to stick with the one that is shorter and more venerable.
