Book Description

1405115149 978-1405115148 October 17, 2005 1
Rabbit medicine is a rapidly expanding area of veterinary practice and rabbits are now the third most popular mammalian pet in the UK. Vets are treating more sick rabbits than ever before, but many vets do not have the clinical experience required to give effective treatment. There is a wealth of information on rabbits available to vets, but much of this is from the laboratory animal field and often isn't applicable to the pet rabbit.

Filling a gap in current literature available on rabbits, this book provides the reader with essential information and guidance on rabbit internal medicine ensuring rabbits are treated to the same standard as canine and feline patients. Along with the other books in the Notes on series, it is specifically designed, through an accessible note-based style, to ensure veterinarians and students have quick and easy access to the most up-to-date clinical and diagnostic information.

This book provides:

* Differential diagnosis, by presenting complaint and organ systems

* Common laboratory abnormalities and their significance in diagnosis

* Infectious diseases, their diagnosis and treatment

* Therapeutics, and how treatment varies from that of the more commonly encountered companion animals

Editorial Reviews

Review

"This book is extremely useful in the field, particularly for someone who is not that familiar with rabbit medicine. The authors are knowledgeable and have a strong desire to teach veterinarians about rabbit medicine.
I recommend this as a useful addition to the practioner's library."

Rebecca Ann Kagan, BS, DVM (University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine)

"The text is 'easy on the eye' for the stressed, time-poor veterinary surgeon, with strong headings and bullet-points allowing quick assimilation of information"

"Excellent as a quick reference tool in the practice library, especially in the areas of infectious diseases and nutrition"

Vet Times, December 2005

5.0 out of 5 stars Rabbit internal Medicine: Must have for the rabbit Breeder, October 6, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Notes on Rabbit Internal Medicine (Paperback)
I recently purchased this book after a mysterious death of a weanling doe. This book is very informative and covers all areas of Rabbit disease and treatment. It was published in The United Kingdom so Americans will have to translate dosages from metric to U.S. measurements. I have found Section 4 which deals with infectious diseases especially helpful. It saved me a few trips to the vet just to get medication for a snuffles outbreak. From the data detailed in the book I was able to administer the proper amount of oxytetracycline to deal with the situation in the infected brood does. The book also includes fairly up to date research data on previously considered exotic conditions such as Encephalitozoon Cuniculi. Many medical books in the past exclusively used data compiled from laboratory animals. The publishers of "Rabbit Internal Medicine" have wisely chosen to include data collected from house rabbit associations as well as private breeders, and lab animals in an attempt to cover a much more realistic demographic. Many conditions such as the above mentioned E. Cuniculi rarely occur in lab animals, but are becoming known to be quite common in pet and show rabbits. This is a great book and a must have for the serious rabbit breeder or medical professional
