Synopsis

This book provides a guide to specialized information sources dealing with animal health pests and their management. A pest is defined as any organism which causes harm or damage, in this case to mammals, birds, fish, reptiles or amphibians. Such pests may include insects, helminths, fungi, bacteria or protozoa. Plants with toxic effects on livestock are also included, but pests, parasites or pathogens of invertebrates are not. The first part of the directory covers books and reviews on animal health, while the second half considers primary literature, database libraries and information centres, and veterinary associations.
