Greetings Dr. Racaniello,
I emailed a few weeks back regarding the 6th edition book of Parasitic Diseases. I would love the pdf of the 5th edition of the textbook like you had mentioned in TWiP 109. I believe that will hold me over until the 6th edition of the books comes out. Thank you so much for all you do with all of your podcasts!
Sincerely,
Caleb Hubbard
