Abstract

The chapter is dedicated to malaria, plasmodium, their ecology, evolution, life cycle, and host interaction. Authors divided the chapter into different subheadings to easily elucidate several aspects of the parasite and disease, which also include disease model evolution of zoonotic malaria of past and present, rise and fall of malaria drugs due to resistant plasmodium strains, and also situations of urban malaria. This may be useful for the reader as the authors also included many scientific anecdotes regarding the history of malaria, plasmodium, and human society.
