This brand-new, full-color reference is a foundational veterinary medical text for veterinarians and veterinary students learning about companion exotic animal diseases. Organized by body system, Current Therapy in Exotic Pet Practice walks students through the most relevant information concerning the diagnosis and treatment of exotic animals — including the most relevant information on anatomy, physical examination, diagnostic testing, disease conditions, therapeutics, epidemiology of diseases, and zoonoses. Topics such as captive care, current standards of care for all exotic species, veterinary clinical epidemiology, and the effective prevention and management of infectious diseases are also included.

    • Expert guidance on treating various disease conditions provides authoritative support for veterinarians who are not yet experienced in companion exotic pet care.
    • Renowned authors and editors have provided information within the book on carefully selected topics of clinical relevance.
    • Detailed coverage on how to identify and treat diseases (from common to rare) helps alleviate the veterinarian’s apprehension when treating an unfamiliar species.
    • Includes the latest information from the current scientific literature and addresses the hot topics associated with treating companion exotic animals today.
    • Vivid full-color images demonstrate the unique anatomic, medical, and surgical features of each species.
