Organized by body-system, this highly illustrated volume covers the normal histological appearance of tissues in a wide range of animals, both domestic and exotic species, with relevant clinical correlates emphasizing the need to appreciate the normal in order to recognize the abnormal. The breadth of coverage-farm animals, dogs, cats, horses, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish-and the integration of normal and abnormal tissue provide a reference of lasting value to veterinary students, veterinary practitioners, and pathologists.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"a long overdue volume... The colored illustrations are exquisitely selected and reproduced. Together with the accompanying simply but clearly written text, the 'package' is a masterpiece of insight into mammalian and selected reptile, amphibian and fish cell structure." Vet Human Toxicol "... excellent new histology textbook... strongly recommended to students in the preclinical and paraclinical years of the veterinary course." Veterinary Record
