No one is better placed to write the biography of Alf Wight, alias James Herriot, than the son who worked alongside him in the veterinary practice during the time that James Herriot became a best-selling author. In this warm and often poignant memoir Jim Wight writes of a man who, despite his huge success as a writer, remained unchanged by wealth and fame; an essentially private person whose family had to share him with his millions of fans throughout the world. Alf Wight was born in Sunderland, but moved a few weeks later to Glasgow; here he had a happy rough-and-tumble childhood. After training at the Glasgow Veterinary College he accepted a job in the Yorkshire town of Thirsk (aka Darrowby) where he remained in practice for over fifty years. The story of the young vet's journey to Thirsk to take up the post of assistant vet to Donald Sinclair (Siegfried Farnon) is one that is well-known through James Herriot's celebrated books, as well as two films and the All Creatures Great and Small television series. Alf Wight was respected and trusted by everyone whose animals he tended and, as James Herriot, loved by a huge and loyal readership the world over.

African animal trypanosomosis (AAT), also called nagana, is a trans-boundary disease that has had an immense impact on cattle and is ranked among the top global cattle diseases. This and tick-borne diseases have caused major obstacles to sustainable livestock-based agricultural production and food security and are important factors in underdevelopment. Due to decreasing efficacy of available drugs, widespread trypanosome resistance, and the difficulty of sustaining other control measures, there is a need for alternative sustainable strategies to reduce the impact these diseases have on livestock. Combating and Controlling Nagana and Tick-Borne Diseases in Livestock provides the latest empirical research findings on the effects of African animal trypanosomiasis (nagana) and tick-borne disease infection in livestock, their impact on farmer livelihoods, and the measures that can be undertaken to mitigate negative effects and reduce the number of infections. While highlighting topic areas such as disease history and transmission, treatments, and the economic impacts, this book is essential for farmers, animal health and animal production professionals and practitioners, non-government organizations, researchers, academicians, and students working in fields that include but are not limited to agriculture, livestock production, environmental science, veterinary medicine, veterinary pathology, and epidemiology.

Der Schwerpunkt des vorliegenden Buches liegt in der zusammen fassenden Darstellung der Methodikder Untersuchung der Spinal fliissigkeit; es ist der Versuch gemacht worden, aHe wesentlichen metho dischen Neuerungen, die sich nicht nur bei Durchsicht des Liquor Schrifttums der letzten 11/2 Jahrzehnte auffinden lieBen, sondern vor aHem auch hinsichtlich ihrer praktischen Anwendbarkeit geniigend gesichert erschienen, ihren Niederschlag in diesem Werk finden zu lassen. Seine Zielsetzung geht somit iiber den Rahmen eines neuzeit lichen methodischen Kompendiums hinaus. Seit dem Erscheinen des ersten zusammenfassenden Buches iiber die Cerebrospinalfliissigkeit in deutscher Sprache, dem Leitfaden von REHM und SCHOTTMULLER aus dem Jahre 1913, der Darstellung von ESSKUCHEN ("Die Lumbalpunktion" 1917) und dem Buch gleichen Titels von PAPPENHEIM (1922), ferner einem Taschenbuch der prak tischen Untersuchungsmethoden der Korperfliissigkeiten bei Nerven und Geisteskrankheiten aus dem Jahre 1927, hat die eigentliche Methodik iiber ein Jahrzehnt lang keine zusammenfassende Darstellung gefunden, . wahrend die Klinik der Cerebrospinalflussigkeit durch DEMME eingehend bearbeitet wurde. Wir haben uns bemiiht, diese Liicke auszufiillen, denn seither sind zweifellos eine ganze Reihe recht wesentlicher Fortschritte und vor aHem neue Erfahrungen hinsichtlich der Brauchbarkeit einzelner Me thoden gemacht worden: Die Technik der Kolloidreaktionen hat wesent liche Neuerungen erfahren, das friiher mangels geeigneter Methoden unzugangliche Problem des Verhaltens der Lipoide im Liquor bei orga nischen Erkrankungen des Zentralnervensystems ist inzwischen unter Anwendung neu geschaffener Mikromethoden bearbeitet worden; klinisch brauchbare Verfahren haben sich aus diesen Forschungsarbeiten ergeben."

zum Teil I der Erganzungsserie zum Handbuch der Neurologie. Nachdem seit dem Erscheinen des von uns herausgegebenen 17bandigen Handbuches der Neurologie 3 Jahre verstrichen sind, haben Herausgeber und Verlag beschlossen, eine Neubearbeitung oder Erganzung derjenigen Handbuch Beitrage vornehmen zu lassen, die heute nach der einen oder anderen Richtung veraltet oder erganzungsbedurftig erscheinen. Auf diese Weise soll das groBe Handbuch der Nimrologie auf der Hohe der Wissenschaft erhalten und in seinem Wert fUr den Besitzer und Benutzer gesichert werden. Erganzung und Neubearbeitung sollen auf zwei verschiedene Weisen vor genommen werden: Soweit Beitrage sich durch Zusammenstellungen und kritische Beurteilung der seit AbschluB des Handbuches erschienenen Literatur auf die Hohe bringen lassen oder soweit es sich um kleinere neu zu beschreibende Kapitel handelt, soll die Form des Erganzungsbandes gewahlt werden. Ein solcher Erganzungs band ist vorbereitet, seine Herausgabe, die von dem Eintreffen der Beitrage zahlreicher Mitarbeiter abhangig ist, wird durch die auBeren Umstande ver zogert. Der zweite Weg besteht in der Herausgabe von Monographien, die groBere Kapitel des Handbuches neu zur Darstellung bringen. Diese Monographien werden im Rahmen der Sammlung "Monographien aus dem Gesamtgebiete der Neurologie und Psychiatrie" erscheinen, und zwar besonders gekennzeichnet als "Erganzungsserie des Handbuches der Neurologie." Als erste dieser Mono graphien erscheint der Beitrag von Professor E. BECK "Die Morphogenie der Hirnrinde." Sie stellt eine wesentliche Erganzung zu dem Beitrag M. ROSES im Handbuch der Neurologie, Bd. 1 "Cyto- und Myeloarchitektonik der GroB hirnrinde" dar, der dringend einer Neubearbeitung bedurftig erscheint."
