"Aware of my gaps as far as lagomorphs are concerned, I read books
written for rabbit owners, attended lectures and CPD, and bought
the BSAVA manual. All this gave me a little confidence, but now,
after seeing the Textbook of Rabbit Medicine, I really believe I
can offer rabbits (and their owners) the high standard of treatment
they require when they come to see me as a veterinarian.
An extremely interesting and authoritative publication which is a
must for the practice bookshelf" "Fabienne Dethioux," Veterinary
Times, November 2002
book is a fascinating read that provides a wealth of information
regarding veterinary medicine and science as it relates to rabbits.
Whether you have no prior knowledge of bunnies, or are well versed
in all things ''rabbity'', this text would be a valuable addition
to your bookshelf, or the practice library.
The publication of this book is obviously the culmination of many
years of hard work and thorough investigation on the part of an
author with a wealth of practical experience and first-hand
knowledge. It is both an enjoyable read and a very valuable
resource, gining comprehensive coverage of current knowledge in the
veterinary care of domestic rabbits." "Hannah O," Veterinary
Nursing Times, February 2003
cannot remember ever reading a veterinary textbook from cover to
cover upon receiving it. However, this is exactly what I did with
Frances Harcourt-Brown''s Textbook of Rabbit Medicine.
Harcourt-Brown incorporates her own clinical expertise with the
best available clinical evidence and research in her book, making
it the best example in exotic pet or laboratory animal medicine of
how to practice evidence-based medicine...The freshness ofthis
information and its integration into plausible clinical
explanations are why I found her book so enjoyable to read.
The chapter on dental disease as expected, is extensive and
illustrated with numerous original drawings and detailed
radiographs-this chapter alone makes this book worth its price.
Textbook of Rabbit Medicine is an outstanding book, a valuable
reference, and an indispensible textbook for any veterinarian who
works with rabbits.
