The Biology and Medicine of Rabbits and Rodents, 10 Jan 2000
By K Susan - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Biology and Medicine of Rabbits and Rodents (Paperback)
The purpose is to provide lab professionals with the advice on the maintenance of rabbits and rodents, concerning their care and health. It covers rabbit, guinea pig, hamster, gerbil, mouse and rat. Even though it is intended for *experts*, the book is relatively easy to read and is very thorough starting with the general husbandry and biology, followed by clinical procedures, sign of disease, diagnoses and listing specific diseases and conditions from A-Z. It lists the hosts for the disease, etiology, transmission, predisposing factors, clinical signs, necropsy signs, diagnosis, prevention, effect on research and public health significance. The last chapter has self test with case reports.Even though this is not an *exotic pet rodent* book, it is a great reference book for any rabbit or rodent pet owner, since most diseases occur in pets as well as in laboratory animals. A nice middle ground between serious technical veterinary books and the common photo pet shop books.

Met every expectation..., 10 Oct 2011
By bearandbu "bearandbu" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Biology and Medicine of Rabbits and Rodents (Paperback)
I ordered this used textbook through Amazon. There's not much to say...it came on time and was in exactly the condition described. This is an inexpensive and reliable way to purchase used books - I've ordered several books this way and each purchase has ALWAYS met my expectations.
Listmania!
