The revised edition of this bestselling textbook contains a unique
blend of text, colour photographs, imaging and diagrams, describing
the gross systematic and topographical anatomy of domestic mammals.
The 3rd edition includes a new chapter on topographic clinical anatomy,
a revised introductory chapter with material on the history of veterinary
and general anatomy, and greatly enhanced use of imaging—ultrasound,
CT and MRI. All the illustrations are now in colour and in total
the new edition contains approximately 100 extra pages. Throughout
the book the authors focus on anatomical relationships to clinical
conditions and where appropriate, to microscopic anatomy, histology,
embryology and physiology.
Greatest emphasis is given to dog and cat and horse, with relevant
information on ox/cow, pig, sheep, goat and rabbit.
The book combines meticulous science and superb illustrations, and
will be a life-long source of reference for veterinary students,
practitioners, educators and researchers.
