 Clinical Textbook for Vet Techs February 19, 2010
B. Cooper
I found this textbook to be well written and well organized. The volume has a nice flow to it so you don't get bogged down in the reading. Excellent photos reinforce the written text. I haven't used the CD that came with it other than to check it out and see what was on it. If someone is thinking about becoming a vet tech and wanted to see what that entails. . .this would be a book to purchase to assist with that decision. I bought this book through Amazon's Textbook search.

 bad information May 1, 2009

I haven't been through the whole book, just skimming it and reading parts that interest me. I'm not impressed. I've found bad information, such as ferrets needing only 30% protein, and needing a bath once a week. It also recommended hiding meds in cheese, yogurt, or ice cream. Sugar is a big no with ferrets, due to their risk of insolonoma. AND they are lactose intolerant! It also mentioned that breeding facilities tattoo the ferret's ear with two dots to indicated spay/neuter and descent. True, but ONLY for Marshall's. Canadian uses an 'I'.
Oh, but the best mistake so far, and I quote, (pg 486) "Typical rodents used for snake food include rabbits, rats, mice, gerbils, chickens, lizards, and other snakes." !!!! What about a chicken is a typical rodent???!!!!
Great condition and delivered fast! October 1, 2008
