In the 6 years since the bestselling first edition of the BSABA
Manual of Rabbit Medicine and Surgery was published, the field has
changed dramatically and there has been a significant increase in
our understanding of rabbit health and disease.
The increase in knowledge is reflected in this second edition,
not only by the increase in length but also by the addition of four
new chapters. General nursing care and hospital supportive care
required for these patients. Diagnostic imaging uses specially
drawn illustrations to explain optimal positioning, and includes
both normal and abnormal radiographs plus ultrasound, CT and MRI
images. Cardiovascular disorders describes diagnostics, including a
useful table of ECG values, and medical management of cardiac and
vascular problems. Finally, the new chapter on Dentistry builds on
the information given in the first edition and illustrates both the
diagnostic approach and treatment of common conditions.
The introduction of a new co-editor and some new authors has
brought new insights and opinions to several areas.
