Description
This new anatomy and physiology textbook for veterinary-related professions provides accessible, well-written coverage of this complex
subject. It begins with basic information, explaining fundamental concepts and principles before moving on to discussions of anatomical
structures. Content focuses on small animals, using the dog as the main example, but also includes exotic species as required for pre-veterinary
nursing and veterinary medicine courses of study. The clear layout, explanatory illustrations, and In Practice tips throughout the book
help readers develop an excellent understanding of the material while demonstrating how specific points relate to everyday clinical scenarios.
Audience
