Saunders Manual of Small Animal Practice

Meticulously organised for optimal readability and ease of reference, the New Edition of this best-selling manual provides quick, comprehensive, practical guidance on evaluating and managing a full range of common medical and surgical conditions seen in small animal medicine.

This 2nd Edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect the most recent advances in practice. It also includes a new, complete drug formulary that provides rapid access to drug dosages.

Separate sections cover general patient management procedures, such as anaesthetic and radiologic techniques and critical care...the health conditions particular to each body system...and the unique management issues of various exotic pet species.

A consistent outline format expedites reference. Medical chapters discuss aetiology, clinical signs, diagnosis, and treatment. Surgical chapters explore surgical anatomy, preoperative considerations, surgical procedure, and postoperative care.

Bulleted charts display key information on differential diagnosis and treatment options at a glance.

An abundance of superb illustrations, executed by a single artist, demonstrate anatomy and surgical technique in a clear and uniform manner.
