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.

What a comprehensive book! Definitely recommend for a biology/veterinary student. It starts with the basics and goes through all systems, the first part is based on the cat and dog's anatomy and physiology. It then goes on to exotic species, covering birds, reptiles, rodents, fish and horses. It's not an easy read but I was determined to finish it and take notes and it was worth it.
