What they say:
"...this manual provides up-to-date information in a format that gives the busy practitioner a logical approach to GI diseases and their solutions...this book will more than pay for itself after a year of what I am sure will be frequent use..." Veterinary Record
“…the authors' stated objective was to produce a modern manual containing all the recent information and conditions of the digestive tract, liver and pancreas which may be encountered by the gastroenterology specialist. At the same time they provide the practitioner with a practical manual giving a reasonable approach to the digestive problems of companion animals and clearer therapeutic guidelines. I personally consider these different objectives to be perfectly attained, which makes this an excellent reference manual...” European Journal of Companion Animal Practice
“…this book is appealing in many ways - it provides a comprehensive reference in a practical and accessible way and the information is complemented with photographs of radiographs, ultrasound images and gross specimens. I have no difficulty in recommending this book to all small animal veterinarians as a worthwhile addition to their practice library...” Feline Focus
