"As veterinary medicine becomes more technologically and socially complex, interest in ethics is growing. Ethics in Veterinary Practice provides a needed reference from the North American perspective, for anyone facing ethical dilemmas (i.e., all of us). Suitable for practitioners, students, and technicians, the book supplies factual background and practical guidance for navigation accompanied by a clear ethical analysis of common dilemmas in all aspects of veterinary medicine." Lisa Moses Veterinary Specialist in Internal Medicine Center for Bioethics Harvard Medical School, USA "Ethics in Veterinary Practice is a statement of both the influence of Bernie Rollin's lifetime work and of the coming of age of veterinary ethics. From the moral status of animals to veterinary ethical dilemmas, from medical errors to professionalism, from economic issues to end-of-life decision making, Ethics in Veterinary Practice leaves no stone unturned. A must-read for students and professionals alike." Manuel Magalhaes Sant'Ana European Veterinary Specialist in Animal Welfare Science, Ethics and Law University of Lisbon, Portugal "This book makes a valuable contribution to the subject, hosting writing from a number of prominent scholars in the field. The book bravely tackles several contemporary issues including veterinary corporations, moral stress and medical errors as well as providing updated insights into the history of the profession and veterinary professionalism. Throughout, the complex and contested place of animals within our society is openly and thoughtfully explored from a veterinary perspective. " Vanessa Ashall European Veterinary Specialist in Animal Welfare Science, Ethics and Law University of York, UK
