"The Animal Parasites of Man" by H. B. Fantham, J. W. W. Stephens, and F. V. Theobald is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century.

It merges historical insights with contemporary findings in parasitology, making it a valuable resource for researchers and students in the field of tropical medicine. The opening of the book begins with a preface outlining the revisions and updates made from a previous German edition. It explains that the current text incorporates a significant amount of new information and reorganizes the original material to reflect scientific advances since its last publication. The authors express gratitude to various contributors for their assistance, emphasizing the collaborative nature of the work.
