Veterinary Medicine is a comprehensive textbook of the diseases of
cattle, horses, sheep, pigs and goats that addresses the needs of
both students and large/mixed animal veterinary practitioners. It
has come to be extensively used as a reference by veterinarians
around the world: it has attained international relevance,
recognition and acceptance with several translations. For the new
11th edition Ken Hinchcliff and Peter Constable are joined as
editors by Professor Stanley Done, a distinguished authority on the
diseases of pigs, and by [a fourth European editor tbc], giving an
editorial team of international scope and expertise. The new
edition has been reorganized into two volumes for ease of use and
offers many new features and topics. The text has been reviewed in
its entirety and edited for concision while retaining the same
level of detail and scope of coverage, and the references have been
comprehensively updated since the previous edition. With this
revised edition of Veterinary Medicine a companion App is also
offered, which presentsin handy mobile format differential
diagnoses, synopses of key points from the book, and tips and
practical hints on therapeutics. When used in conjunction, the
Veterinary Medicine book and App make an unbeatable reference that
combines all the benefits of comprehensiveness with the convenience
of portability . Comprehensive coverage includes information
essential to any large-animal veterinarian, especially those
working with horses, cattle, sheep, goats, or pigs. Coverage of
diseases addresses major large-animal diseases of all countries,
including foreign animal and emerging diseases. User-friendly
format makes it easier to quickly absorb key information. Quick
review/synopsis sections make important information on complex
diseases easy to find. NEW! Convenient, easy-access format is

compact volumes with the same authoritative coverage. Nearly 200

faster reference. New Diseases Primarily Affecting the Reproductive
System chapter is added. Updated and expanded chapter on
pharmacotherapy lists therapeutic interventions and offers
