Description

Pathology is a fundamental part of the veterinary curriculum, and all students take at least one semester in general pathology and one in special, or systemic, pathology. Slauson-Cooper has been the book of choice in general veterinary pathology since 1982. It introduces students to disease concepts inherent in clinical medicine through the study of pathogenetic mechanisms and stresses the importance of critical thinking. Pathology is a changing science. Disease is still often caused by various microbes and toxins, but the continuing fascination is with how disease occurs. This classic text focuses on new advances in our understanding of the complex mechanisms by which mammals become sick.
