Product Description
Duncan and Prasse's Veterinary Laboratory Medicine provides the reader with an excellent overview of veterinary clinical pathology. The new edition retains its elegantly simple outline format and section organization (physiology, evaluation disorders, disorders, and appropriate clinical cases). This enables readers to quickly identify key words, ideas and information in the text. Each chapter is followed by a current reference list, primarily from refereed professional journals.
As in previous editions, the fourth edition applies a problem-solving approach to interpretation of laboratory data. The authors stress the differential diagnosis of the abnormal laboratory value, and emphasize the mechanism or pathophysiology of the various abnormalities rather than specific diseases.

 A continous list January 15, 2007
1 out of 4 found this review helpful
Altough complete, updated and deep covering most of the aspect of clinical pathology, exposition of the matter is done in the list form, like a "things to buy" note. It looks like a student's lesson note and the subject is not treated in the usual way a book does, as say with sensed phrases that correlate one to the next following a logical thread. It is more a manual than a book and it is something that is impossible to read one paragraph after the other, and even harder to remember. Anyway it carries a lot of useful information and helped me whenever i needed.
 Excellent book September 1, 2005

In my opinion, the best veterinary clinical pathology book. Great easy to read format. Consise, but providing more than just the basics. Great cases studies in the back that review topics.
