Description
About the Book
"The popularity of Exotic Companion Mammals has increased exponentially in recent years. With this increase, veterinarians in general small animal practice, emergency clinics, and even canine and feline specialty practice are often faced with the difficult challenge of evaluating these often-unfamiliar species. Although excellent in-depth textbooks exist, much of the current information available on these species is scattered in multiple journals, periodicals, conference proceedings, bulletins, and internet resources. For the busy practitioner to keep abreast of all these resources is a daunting task, especially for those simultaneously striving to keep current in canine and feline medicine. Blackwell's Five-Minute Veterinary Consult: Small Mammals was designed to bring this information together in a concise, readily accessible format"--Book Synopsis
