Industry Reviews
Parasites and Pets: A Veterinary Nursing Guide is presented in a question and answer format and is intended to serve as a quick reference for veterinary technicians in regard to the management of parasitic diseases in clinical practice. Although the content focuses primarily on parasitic diseases of dogs and cats, it also address-es questions that are commonly posed by clients with an emphasis on potential zoo-noses. The book is well organized with parasitic diseases divided into chapters on the basis of the body system affected. Each chapter contains illustrations and essential in-formation about the parasites being discussed, including geographic distribution, life cycle, transmission, clinical signs, diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and zoonotic potential.
