BSAVA Manual of Canine and Feline Reproduction and Neonatology, 2nd edition Edited by: Gary England and Angelika von Heimendahl Reproduction and neonatology are important aspects of general veterinary practice, with a large number of consultations being undertaken by veterinary surgeons both for the prevention of breeding and for optimizing reproductive performance and neonatal survival. There has been substantial development in the field since the first edition of the BSAVA Manual of Small Animal Reproduction and Neonatology was published in 1998, and this is reflected in the second edition. The Manual provides a practical approach to reproduction and neonatology, with the chapters divided into five main sections: The reproductive cycle Infertility Pregnancy and parturition Neonatology Clinical approach to common conditions (including a chapter on the clinical relevance of biotechnological advances)
