5.0 out of 5 stars Veterinary Technicians Daily Reference Guide, December 23, 2002
By 
L Merrill (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Veterinary Technician's Daily Reference Guide: Canine and Feline (Paperback)
Cut to the chase! That is what this book is all about. If I'm in a hurry to find the answer I don't want to hunt through the text to find what I'm looking for. The chart format lays it all out for quick review. Also, it is much easier to view options in similar categories. This is truly a book that lives up to it's title. Definately want to keep this book close by for easy access. Why didn't someone think of this sooner?

2.0 out of 5 stars Daily Reference Guide, April 14, 2006
This review is from: Veterinary Technician's Daily Reference Guide: Canine and Feline (Paperback)
True, this book can be a cut-to-the-chase reference, but it depends on what you're looking for. A lot of the stuff is good, but I dont like the chart form. If you're looking for a disease its not that fun to find it, let alone read it in the skinny columns. I bought it but I never use it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Simplicity, July 26, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Veterinary Technician's Daily Reference Guide: Canine and Feline (Paperback)
My entire practice has gotten alot out of this book. It is not TERRIBLY invasive but it gives the need to know info when you need to know it. The anatomy pages are great and the hematology references are helpful. All in all the layout makes things easy to find with out having to haul around the 5minute consult that weighs 43 pounds. Great guide for busy techncians. Highly recommended.
