Book Description

1995 0813829909 978-0813829906 1st
With the great increase, worldwide, in the number and variety of reptiles and amphibians kept as pets, in collections or for research, veterinary practitioners are expected to have a good knowledge of the medicine needed to treat them. This Self-Assessment Color Review presents the reader with over 250 short cases using high quality color photographs and questions pitched at various levels of expertise, plus detailed explanatory answers. The cases appear randomly, just as in real life, and allow the reader--by solving the clinical puzzle--to make differential diagnoses, treatment plans and prognoses.

Both authors are internationally renowned, and Dr. Frye is a world authority on reptile and amphibian medicine. Practitioners and students at all levels, as well as herpetologists, professional and amateur, will find in this Color Review a wealth of problem-oriented material to learn from and enjoy in their formal and informal training and continuing education.

5.0 out of 5 stars an excellent revision tool for herp medicine and surgery, August 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Self-Assessment Color Review of Reptiles and Amphibians (SELF-ASSESSMENT COLOR REVIEW SERIES) (Paperback)
This book is packed with interesting cases of amphibian and reptile medicine and surgery. All the important/ common diseases are dealt with. Some diseases are replicated but this serves to help the reader learn about those in more detail. An excellent aid to revision for vet students and vets in practice who wish to test themselves and learn extra tips and facts in this area. The small size and 'quick fix' nature of the book encourages the reader to dip into the book in quiet moments and learn something new or refresh the memory. Should also be interesting to keep herp owners.

4.0 out of 5 stars Improve your clinical skills with a pleasant read., November 23, 2000

This review is from: Self-Assessment Color Review of Reptiles and Amphibians (SELF-ASSESSMENT COLOR REVIEW SERIES) (Paperback)
The "Self-Assessment Color Review" collection is very nice and I can recommend the reptile and amphibian one. In my opinion, this book is not intended to give you a profound and detailed picture of the diseases but it more or less tries to confront you with real-life situations. Excellent for students or clinicians who want to deepen or broaden their interest.
