It is aimed at the non-specialist veterinarian and fills a niche between the large, comprehensive books on sheep and the shorter texts aimed at farmers. It will also appeal to all those involved in sheep production, and is a valuable reference for veterinary students. A wide range of diseases and conditions is covered, together with important aspects of production such as lamb output and growth rates. New sections have been added on nutrition (which has a significant effect on all aspects of production), anaesthesia, vaccination programmes, and parasite control. The book is practical, accessible and user-friendly. It now includes colour pictures of important diseases. It is expanded to give comprehensive coverage of sheep diseases and not just diagnosis.Item type | Current location | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
