Product Review
"written by world leaders in the field of equine respiratory disease Whilst the majority of the authors are highly respected clinicians the book benefits greatly from contributions by prominent authors in other related disciplines such as veterinary anaesthesia, epidemiology, pathology and physiology. It is surprising that this is the first book to provide in-depth discussion of both medical and surgical aspects of equine respiratory disease. The book is laid-out in seven sections sub-divided into manageable chapters. The style and layout are consistent throughout and there is minimal repetition between sections as occurs in some multi-author texts. The order is logical and the index section is comprehensive allowing rapid navigation to the topic of interest. The major strength of this book is the image reproduction; colour photographs and diagrams are numerous and of high quality. This book fulfils its objective to become the definitive text on equine respiratory medicine and surgery. It is a valuable point of reference and yet by virtue of its user-friendly layout and high concentration of images is also an inviting read. For a book of its calibre it is competitively priced and would be a worthwhile purchase for anyone with an interest in equine respiratory disease regardless of their level of knowledge or experience.
