Self-Assessment Color Review of Small Mammals

by Susan A. Brown, Karen L. Rosenthal

Veterinary practitioners are presented with diseases and disorders in a large and ever-increasing range of small mammalian patients. The editors have gathered together contributions from 29 experts who cover all aspects of medicine and surgery in small mammals, including rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, mice, hamsters, gerbils, hedgehogs, ferrets, primates, squirrels, foxes, raccoons and pot-bellied pigs. The random self-assessment format is used to enable the reader to think through each case step by step. Each of the 216 questions and illustrations - color photographs, X-rays, charts and tables - is followed by a thorough explanation to provide the diagnosis and a suggested treatment plan.
