This book provides an in-depth review on various aspects of canine
and feline hypertension. Physiology, pathophysiology, epidemiology
and pathological consequences of high blood pressure in cats and
dogs are discussed. A comparative approach is taken, the
underpinning research is critically evaluated and knowledge gaps
identified. In addition, the reader is presented with
evidence-based treatment strategies. The book targets researchers,
graduate students and clinical specialists in small animal internal
medicine as well as veterinary clinicians with interest in
nephrology, cardiology, neurology and ophthalmology.

The human-animal bond has evolved and diversi?ed down the ages.
Dogs, cats and even horses, have long ful?lled the role of faithful
companion and indeed, as exempli?ed by the introduction of seeing
and hearing dogs, there may be a critical level of co-dependency
between the species. In the twenty-?rst century, the animal types
that are kept as pets in many parts of the world are extensive
ranging from reptiles through rodents to ruminants and beyond. As
would be predicted by the nature of the relationship, the approach
to treatment of a companion animal is often closely aligned to that
which would have been offered to their owner. However, an
increasing awareness of welfare issues, such as the recognition
that animals expe- ence pain and the proven bene?ts of disease
prevention in intensive farming units, together with the growth in
zoos and wildlife parks, has increased the likelihood of food
producing and non-domesticated animals receiving medicinal products
during their life-time. Although many of the individual drugs or
classes of drugs administered to animals are the same as, or
derived from, those given to man, the safe and effective use of
drugs in animals often cannot be achieved by simply transposing
knowledge of drug action on, or behaviour in, the body from one
species to another. The impact of the anatomical, physiological and
pathophysiological variability that spans the animal kingdom can
often profoundly alter drug response.

Set against the backdrop of an office in Washington, D.C.
Excellence is an erotic thriller that tells a compelling tale of
how lives intersect in the mundane everyday and how a single act
can change the fate of everyone involved.
This is a short selection of poetry written during my stay in
Culver City, California in 2014. Some of the poems are memories of
my youth, some of the poems are of the present time, some of the
poems are wishful thinking of the future.
A book of poetry I wrote during my stay at Del Ray Beach, Florida,
a small village by the sea.
