Colour handbook of skin diseases of the dog and cat - Richard G. Harvey

Combining the advantages of a short textbook and an atlas, the authors present in a problem–oriented manner the aetiology, clinical features, diagnosis and management of the most commonly seen dermatoses of dogs and cats. The book is arranged into 12 sections covering dermatoses classified according to their principal presenting sign. Each of the 125 diseases is described in a concise and structured way, focusing on the points necessary to explain the disease to the owner, formulate a practical differential diagnosis, arrive at a definitive diagnosis and institute treatment. References are given to allow the clinician access to the literature. The book is practical, extensive in its content, beautifully illustrated and designed, and will be of value to veterinary practitioners and students worldwide.
