6th Edition
Volume 3
Continues its long tradition of being the most comprehensive
reference book on common domestic mammal pathology. Using a body systems
approach, veterinary pathology experts provide overviews of general
system characteristics, reactions to insult, and disease conditions that
are broken down by type of infectious or toxic insult affecting the
anatomical subdivisions of each body system. The sixth edition now
boasts a new full-color design, including more than 2,000
high-resolution images of normal and abnormal organs, tissues, and
cells. Updated content also includes evolved coverage of disease agents
such as the Schmallenberg virus, porcine epidemic diarrhea virus, and
the porcine deltacoronavirus; plus new information on molecular-based
testing, including polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and in-situ
hybridization, keep you abreast of the latest diagnostic capabilities.
