| Average Customer Rating: A bible for the equine practitioner Since I have all the editions of this book starting from the 3rd one (thus probably not all) I can say that these books have successfully accompanied me through my professional life. This 6th edition is no exception and will be a bible for the equine practitioner and a reference book for the scholar aswell. Between the specific sections written by experts and the comprehensive drug listing and dosing at the end, it is definately a must for everyone that has to or wants to deal with equine internal medicine. Bastante Util!! Es un excelente libro. lo puedes llevar a donde sea, ya que no es de un tamaƱo excesivo como otros, este es un solo tomo, con la informacion muy condensada pero bastante clara. Lo utilizo siempre que qiero profundizar en algun tema o cuando necesito investigar sobre la terapeutica de algunas patologias particulares. | |
