The emphasis of this new edition of the Color Atlas remains the visible signs of diseases and disorders in the live animal.

Review
"What this textbook does well is to quickly provide the reader with enough information to come to the most likely diagnosis for certain diseases, based on a description of its clinical signs and with the use of good photography...The images are excellent and allow you to see what diseases actually look like, as opposed to endless text and droning lecturers! I would certainly recommend this book to all veterinary students in their clinical years and certainly those with a particular interest in cattle medicine."

"Its role as a reference text covering a huge spectrum of cattle ailments, is also simply a pleasure to dip into and browse during quiet moments."
