description: Here's the newest edition of the "gold standard" in the field! This comprehensive new edition covers nearly all the major content areas in the veterinary technology curriculum. Written by veterinarians (including many board-certified specialists) and veterinary technicians, it covers common clinical procedures, clinical sciences, animal husbandry, pharmacology, medical and surgical care of small and large animal species, practice management, and more. Completely updated and reorganized for a more logical flow of information, the new edition now progresses from basic procedures to clinical sciences to management of small, large, and exotic species. It also contains several hundred new photographs, helpful pedagogical aids, and many totally rewritten chapters. Lavishly illustrated, with a Whos Who list of contributing authors. Helpful pedagogical aids such as introductions, suggested readings, and boxed Technician Tips throughout. New, expanded chapter on dentistry, reflecting greater involvement by technicians in preventive and corrective procedures. Heavily revised sections include birds, reptiles, and small mammals; anesthesia, pain management, and pharmacology; surgery; and medical records.
