Biography
Karen Rosenthal, Neil Forbes, Fredric Frye, Gregory Lewbart
The illustrations - including photographs of animals, lesions and techniques as well as microscopic images - are excellent...a well presented and very readable book
—Lesa Longley, Veterinary Times, February 2010
The authors have provided a quick guide for the busy general veterinary clinician to use. [They] should be commended on putting together this useful text for the ever-growing veterinary interest to treat exotic animals.
—Thomas Tully, Journal of Exotic Pet Medicine, April 2009
...a fun and interesting way to learn about these species, and provides pithy and accurate, up to date assessments of most of the common conditions and problems that will present in this diverse group of animals. It should be a welcome addition to the book shelf of those dealing with exotic animals.
—Sharon Redrobe, The Veterinary Journal, April 2009
This is a useful self assessment resource for experienced and novice practitioners caring for exotic animal pets... Will provide veterinarians with a quick, case-based reference with pictures to help guide them towards more information or even to rule out diseases and husbandry issues. (3 stars)
