This is a foundation level manual in the popular series from the BSAVA. It presents the basic principles upon which the practice of modern veterinary surgery is based. The principles of surgery will often dictate the outcome of a surgical procedure, more so than the use of the most up-to-date technique, and the surgeon ignores them at their peril. The BSAVA Manual of Surgical Principles presents a solid grounding in the basic principles, with practical examples of why they are important, creating a manual that is very readable and relevant for the veterinary surgeon in practice.

In the latest addition to the BSAVA imaging Manuals series, this book provides an overview of the physical principles of ultrasonography and discusses the equipment required as well as the general principles of the ultrasound examination. It then moves on to discuss body systems in individual chapters, with each chapter following a similar format:

• Indications

• Comparison of ultrasonography with radiography and CT

• Imaging technique

• Normal ultrasonographic appearance

• Interpretation of disease

The major 2012 Feline Medicine & Surgery Conference (Valentine Charlton Memorial Conference) was a most successful and memorable event! Those attending were able to immerse themselves in a rich array of fascinating talks on the very latest in all things feline from eminent international speakers Gary Norsworthy and Jane Sykes (who both flew over from the USA) and talented local experts Mark Bilson, Paul Canfield, Sanaa Zaki, Heide Kloeppel, Linda Vogelnest and Graeme Allan.

Building on the success of previous editions, the Editors of the third edition of BSAVA Manual of Canine and Feline Oncology have sought to marry the best of the old with the new. All chapters have been updated, or rewritten, by international experts to encompass the important advances made over the last several years, while keeping the text practical and user-friendly. 

The new fifth edition of this classic core BSAVA Textbook of Veterinary Nursing textbook has been fully updated to reflect the current syllabus, including equine content for the first time, while retaining additional useful chapters that are no longer covered in the syllabus. Each chapter includes learning objectives and self assessment questions. There are new chapters on professional responsibilities, professional development and learning.

Man controls and dominates the habitat of most animals, both domestic and wild and there is a need for a pragmatic, workable approach to the problem of reconciling animal welfare with economic forces and the needs of man. It is the author's contention that much of the current philosophical discussion of animal welfare is misdirected now that it is possible to measure to some extent what animals think and feel and how much they can appreciate their quality of life.
