Summary

An author team combining the technical experiences of a veterinarian working in clinical practice and a 20-year veteran teacher created this accurate, easy-to-use resource. In addition to outlining career opportunities available in the veterinary science, the chapters detail topics on cells, tissues, systems, nutrition, species comparison, principles of disease, disease prevention and diagnosis, zoonotic disease, surgery, and economic decision-making in veterinary practice. Each chapter features ?A Day in the Life of a Veterinarian? vignette that relays James Herriot-type stories with relevance to clinical practice, and makes the book interesting and informative to readers. Practical applications and reference material are integrated throughout the book to promote a broader understanding of veterinary science.
