As textbooks go, this is one of the few that I may actually choose to read in a spare moment, not just when madly researching what could possibly be the problem when I get called to a goat farm. It contains interesting information on the background of goat farming, goat behaviour, nutrition and husbandry in the introductory section. This is an area that was poorly covered during my time at vet school and, had I not had good exposure to goat medicine in practice, the temptation would always be to assume their needs are the same as those of sheep. Despite being written by two of the most well-known goat vets in the UK, the information is based at general practitioner level. The layout makes for easy reading with suitable text size, plenty of colour photos of live animals, postmortem findings, ultrasound scans, radiographs and histology samples... Those of us who treat goats know how few products are licensed for treating them, but this book gives detailed recommended dosages that won't be found on any medicines packaging. This hardback, logically presented book will live on a handy shelf to be used on a regular basis. - P am Brown, mixed practice vet at Alnorthumbria Vets, Wooler, in Veterinary Record, 27 April 2019 medicines packaging.

    I was searching for this book for a while and was appalled at the cost. I came across this seller and I was happy with the price from the seller. The seller messaged to let me know that this was the global version before it was actually shipped. That, I appreciated so much. My book arrived in perfect condition, looks great. The packaging was secure and the book, brand new. This is of great quality both in the service and the book. I will definitely use this seller again. Excellent!

    Exactly what I ordered, came within the requested delivery date, and in great condition. It was wrapped so well that even though the corner had a very small dent in it, the book inside the package was in perfect condition. For anyone wondering, this seller is LEGIT and offers excellent service.
