For the most extensive coverage of horse disease, look to EQUINE MEDICINE AND SURGERY. This comprehensive, two-volume text of medical and surgical diseases is organized by body systems, with introductory chapters on diagnostic approaches to common complaints, practice management, evaluation and diagnosis, and therapy. More than 1600 illustrations and numerous full-color plates enhance the new, expanded coverage of critical care, the neonate, farriery, breeding, infertility, and tendon and ligament injuries. * Serves as a one-stop reference with comprehensive, up-to-date coverage of both equine medicine and surgery. * Provides a global perspective of equine medicine and surgery from authoritative, international contributors and editors. * Promotes decision making in the diagnostic process with a consistent organization of each body system chapter: examination, diagnostic aids, pathophysiology and principles of therapy, diseases affecting multiple sites, then diseases of each component of the system. * Uses color plates that clearly illustrate syndromes in the chapters on the respiratory, ocular, musculoskeletal, integumentary, and hemolymphatic systems.
