Very good for someone new to the disease, or unaware at how devistating it can be (can cause major damage to every major organ in many different ways(some strains can cause instant heart attacks/blocks, etc..yikes!)Dr. Schaller writes that 80% of cats tested in CA have some strain of bartonella (aka-Cat Scratch fever). It listed many of the common forms of treatment and how many can help but not completely cure the disease. It's filled with pictures, which are actually quite hard to see..but impresses the reader with the fact that it can cause many different types of rashes or physical damage. It can also cause 52 types of damage to the retina. Essential for practitioners or anyone in contact with sick people. It's also more common in ticks than Lyme.
