Choose the #1 veterinary textbook on general pathology and the pathology of organ systems! Pathologic Basis of Veterinary Disease, 7th Edition helps your students use the latest scientific and medical information to understand and diagnose animal disorders. Focusing on dogs, cats, horses, cattle, sheep, goats, and pigs, this reference illustrates and explores the pathogeneses of animal diseases, how cells and tissues respond to injury, and the morphology (lesions) of injury. New to this edition is basic coverage of tumor, inflammatory, and microbial cytology. An enhanced eBook version included with every new print purchase includes access to a complete, fully searchable version of the text, an image collection, and much more – available on a variety of devices.
