<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>A paperback edition for the student market, this standard work of reference has been a bestseller for over 70 years. It is an essential tool for anyone with a professional or leisure interest in the care of animals. Much more than a list of veterinary terms, its practical approach ensures that readers gain an insight into the signs and symptoms of common, and less common, diseases, as well as their diagnosis and treatment. </p><p>For this edition much new and updated information has been included, reflecting the numerous developments that have taken place in animal care and husbandry, and welfare. There is greatly expanded coverage of topics relating to popular breeds of dog and cat, and the inheritable conditions that might affect their health. </p><p>Advances in medicine, surgery and diagnostic techniques; descriptions of newly identified diseases such as Schmallenberg virus; the resurgence of old scourges such as TB in cattle, and ongoing enzootic infections such as bird flu are also included in this edition. The growing risk of exotic diseases such as heartworm being imported following the relaxation of travel arrangements for dogs and cats is reflected in new entries. Notes on many new species being farmed or kept as companion animals are among the thousands of topics covered.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Edward Boden</b> is a former editor of The Veterinary Record. He was founding editor of In Practice, the BVA's journal of continuing professional development.</p><p><b>Anthony Andrews</b> is an independent veterinary consultant; a former Senior Lecturer in Farm Animal Medicine, he has written over 15 veterinary books.</p>
