This source for breeders outlines the basic principles of heredity, illustrated by examples. Modern methods of animal improvement which can be called upon to further the aims of dog breeding are also discussed. Outstanding problems of breed genotypes have been resolved, but at the same time numerous genetic anomalies have been identified through greater genetic awareness and attempts to secure breeding data. The descriptive summaries of genetic anomalies have been substantially documented.

"The Waltham Book of Dog and Cat Nutrition" appeared in 1982 and a second edition was published six years later. "The Waltham Book of Companion Animal Nutrition" now embraces birds, ornamental fish and horses, in addition to completely rewritten and updated chapters on dog and cat nutrition. This book presents the greatly increased body of knowledge in the area in an accessible, readable way. Now that the science of nutrition has moved much more into the professional and general consciousness, it is of the utmost importance that a standard work is available which crystallises all the key points on the subject. "The Waltham Book of Companion Animal Nutrition" does this to the highest standard.

<p>Medical textbooks are full of helpful information, but they usually do not address complex clinical scenarios. For anesthesia providers, problems are often encountered in the operating room where textbooks and medical journals are not readily available. Even when a text is handy, practical decisions often must be made immediately. Residents in training, recent graduates, and even the most senior anesthesia providers, learn by experience. Case conferences and grand rounds are held in almost every hospital so that all staff members can share in their colleague s experiences. This book, presents a variety of interesting cases. The author has a unique talent for describing real clinical dilemmas and their solutions in a concise, interesting, and entertaining manner.</p>
