Description
There are several 'blockbuster' veterinary textbooks on the market, the biggest competitor being Ettinger's Textbook of Veterinary Internal Medicine Expert Consult, 8E (2 volumes). However, this book is more practical and accessible, with a great percentage of high quality illustrations.
Our problem-based approach is ideal for beginners and even intermediate students. Very few veterinary textbooks have such a rich emphasis on photographs: the endoscopic and radiographic, CT and MRI images are particularly impressive. The inclusion of sections on approach to thoracic and abdominal radiographs are unique and encourage an integrated learning approach. Case examples add to the book's practical USP.
