Product Description

Review

"This is an excellent, thorough yet concise, reader–friendly book. It lends itself to rapid information retrieval, which is important to busy practitioners. This edition is better organized, has more information (more topics), and offers the most up–to–date material available. It should be on every general practitioner′s shelf." (Doody′s, 2 March 2012)

"This book provides relatively new graduates with a useful guide and reference, and more senior colleagues with a refresher and some readily available nuggets of information that could be difficult to find through a literature search ... Whilst this book is written in the USA, it is a useful addition to the bookshelves of UK practices." (Veterinary Practice, 1 February 2012)

"In summary, I feel this is a well–designed and thought–out book, with many distinguished contributors. It would be beneficial to any practice to have a copy on the shelf." (Veterinary Record, 17 December 2011)

"The text is an important addition to the busy practice. This is one of those books that will stay out on the counter throughout the day. The topics are arranged alphabetically and the table of contents is clean and easy–to–use. If you are ambivalent about updating, It′s definitely safe to do so with this book." (Vin Book Reviews, 1 December 2011)

Reviews of the Previous Edition:

"Bigger and better… The recent edition of the most widely used book in general practice doesn′t fail its mission: to provide easy and fast help to the busy practitioner. It will take you more than 5 minutes to read the 13 pages [on anemia]... but you won’t miss any option! The appendix also contains lots of useful information such as endocrinology tests and toxic agents with their antidotes. A very complete drug formulary provides practical recommendations, including adverse effects and precautions, or the treatment of dogs and cats." –Vets Today

"Blackwell’s latest edition of the Five–Minute Veterinary Consult for canine and feline health issues is a stunning volume which consists of 1578 pages of concise information..... For veterinary students or authors of veterinary literature, this would be a great reference book to have on the shelf. For practicing veterinarians or clinicians the approach of this text allows for quick access in times of diagnostic dilemmas. Finally, for someone who is teaching in a veterinary technician program this book would be an invaluable resource." –Veterinary Information Network

"This book is a one stop shop for anyone who needs an answer fast and the alphabetically ordered format is well suited to this end...As to whether it is a worthwhile investment for any small animal practice I would say definitely yes, and if it is a practice with new or recent graduates then I would argue that it should be a top priority addition to the library." –Journal of Small Animal Practice

Format:Hardcover
As a recent vet graduate I have found this book extremely useful; there is just the right amount of information present, it details everything from clinical signs, differentials, diagnostic tests and treatment plans. It is a very useful reference book to have in any veterinary practice. Very pleased with my purchase.

Best book for quick reference!
I bought all the editions.
I got the new one because old one was falling apart!
The last Blackwell I'll order until the C-d comes back 2 Mar 2012
By Dean Hawkinson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
I have the last three editions of Blackwell's Five-Minute Veterinary Consult: Canine and Feline. I use the C-d editions daily in practice that came with my first two editions. I ordered the new edition as an e-edition. They allowed 10 downloads and I was able to do 3. There is no connection from the articles to the formulary. The formulary can not be found in the e-edition. I'll keep using the 2008 edition as long as possible. I'm sure the hard cover book is fine.
Good book 1 Dec 2011
By pete - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I'm a veterinary student, but my interest is more with large animal medicine then small animal medicine. I purchased this book to have as a quick resource for studying for the upcoming boards and also to help me out while on small animal rotations. So far I have had no problem navigating the book or website, and have even used the brochures to help explain things to friends who ask me questions. I put some thought into buying either this book or the clinical advisor book, and mainly went with this one since it had newer material in it and brochures available. To this point I actually really like this book, and would recommend it if you only need the basics and a quick refresher on topics. If you want more information, well thats what the Internal Veterinary Medicine books are for.
