Women authors have explored fantasy fiction in ways that connect
with feminist narrative theories, as examined here by Katherine J.
Weese in seven modern novels. These include Margaret Atwood's
""Lady Oracle"", Iris Murdoch's ""The Sea, the Sea"", Marilynne
Robinson's ""Housekeeping"", Carol Shields' ""The Stone Diaries"",
Barbara Kingsolver's ""The Poisonwood Bible"", and Toni Morrison's
""Beloved"" and ""Paradise"". The fantastic devices highlight
various feminist narrative concerns such as the authority of the
female voice, the implications of narrative form for gender
construction, revisions to traditional genre conventions by women
writers, and the recovery of alternative versions of stories
suppressed by dominant historical narratives. Weese also frames the
fantastic elements in the scope of traditional fictional structure.
"Companion Animal Zoonoses" is a comprehensive resource on diseases
transmissible between animals and humans. Presenting detailed
prevention and control strategies for zoonotic diseases, the book
is an in-depth guide to practical information on the spread of
disease between pet animals and humans. This relevant work provides
up-to-date information on emerging issues, disease incidence and
risk, and management measures.
Covering the complete range of companion animal zoonoses, each
topic begins with information on etiology, geographic distribution,
epidemiology, and pathophysiology. The discussion then moves into
clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management, alongside
prevention information for both animals and humans. "Companion
Animal Zoonoses" is an essential reference for practicing
veterinarians, public health veterinarians, and veterinary
students. It will also appeal to physicians who wish to better
understand zoonotic diseases.
