Publisher's Synopsis
This represents a new approach to diagnosis in the horse based on specific signs or problems rather than functional systems or pathological lesions.;The horse has become increasingly important, not only to specialist equine practice, but also to the farm animal practice, and particularly to the small animal practice in suburban areas. Many of these practices would like to deal with more horse and pony work but are deterred by a lack of confidence in their approach to the horse and its owner, and in the diagnostic techniques.;The book is aimed at practitioners in non-specialist as well as specialist practice and also final year veterinary students.
