Review
“Overall, this is an up–to–date quick reference text for dermatology that would have a good place on most book–shelves in general practice.” ( Veterinary Times , 1 May 2012) "The succinct and practical nature of the book makes it an excellent handy reference guide, with a surprising amount of detail on each condition." (JSAP, 2012) "The following chapters (all beautifully illustrated with colour photographs) look at the various conditions according to their aetiology. . . I would recommend that you protect and reinforce the soft cover of this Clinical Companion because I believe it won′t resist the intensive use it is likely to get in the consulting room." (Vets Today, 2011) "This book is well laid out with lots of colour clinical pictures, and is easy to follow. . . Overall, this is an up–to–date quick reference text for dermatology that would earn its place on most bookshelves in general practice." (Veterinary Times, 22 August 2011) "Overall, this book is an excellent tool for any busy companion animal clinician, providing the right amount of information, in the right format for first opinion practice. " (Veterinary Practice, 1 July 2011) "This book offers a quick overview of a variety of dermatologic diseases in small animals and a small amount of information on pathogenesis and treatment. The bullet–point format lends itself to fast, easy reading and the client handout templates are of particular interest for general practitioners. This edition significantly updates the first edition, published in 2002." ( Doody′s, April 2011)
