Overall, this edition has undergone major improvements; the chapters are well written and organized with updated information. This book will be a valuable addition to the library of any veterinarian with an interest in anesthesia and analgesia. (Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 15 December 2015) More than 80 contributors bring their knowledge, experience and in many cases their teaching skills to a tool which represents the latest reference in the field. (Vet Nurses Today, 1 October 2015) This book provides a complete and excellent practice stock text for anaesthesia and analgesia and is so well written that it is a pleasure to read. (Veterinary Record, 3 October 2015) This comprehensive book is a must have for veterinarians who perform anesthesia or provide analgesia. It is essential for exotic, zoo, and laboratory animal veterinarians and would be very helpful for veterinary students to help augment lectures on these topics. (Choice 2016) The book covers anaesthesia and analgesia in a very practical manner, combining scientific updates with clinical approaches for a vast number of domestic and wildlife, zoo and laboratory animal species. This new edition is a valuable and very accessible resource for the veterinary practitioner. (European Journal of Companion Animal PracticeSpring 2017)
