Great Book! September 4, 2005 T. R. Pulliam (Ritzville, WA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I am currently a student of Professor McNamara at Washington State University. He covers his topics very well, just as in the book, covering many different parts of animal nutrition across the different forms of domestic animal life. A must read for anyone with pets, to better understand what their diets should entail.
