Rezensionen

"In summary, I highly recommend this textbook and hope it
will find its way onto the bookshelf at every veterinary emergency
hospital. Even those in general practice will find it very useful
when that unexpected emergency patient shows up in the lobby (at
4:45 pm on a Friday, naturally)!" (VSPN.org, 9
August 2013)

"Regardless, the second edition remains an accessible,
well-written, and user-friendly text to guide practitioners in
managing common small animal emergencies in any
setting." (Vet Med Today, 15 December 2013)

"Overall, the 2nd edition of SAECCM is a very
practical emergency and critical care manual. It will be filling
the spot in my library where my 1st edition used to sit until
someone else also decided it was an excellent book."
(Australian Veterinary Journal, 1 March 2013)

"The book would be useful in practice as a first port of
call in an emergency situation, particularly for recent graduates
or clinicians facing an unfamiliar case out of hours."
(Veterinary Practice, 1 January 2013)

"Douglas M. Macintire, et.al.'s MANUAL OF SMALL ANIMAL EMERGENCY
AND CRITICAL CARE MEDICINE (9780813824734, $89.99) provides the
second updated edition of a classic vet's desk reference covering
common emergencies in small animals. From injuries and wound
management to new chapters on revisions to treatment protocols and
expanded toxicology information, this reflects the latest science
and discoveries and is a 'must' emergency vet's reference, arranged
in quick consultation format for fast lookup." (Midwest Book
Reviews, 1 December 2012)
"This is an informative quick reference for emergency cases,
with useful tools for management. A revised and updated edition was
necessary to reflect new medications and treatments."
(Doody's, 19 October 2012)

"The second updated edition of Manual of Small Animal
Emergency and Critical Care Medicine provides key details on common
emergencies in small animals and offers a new edition with
completely new chapter on orthopedic injuries, wound management,
and expanded toxicology information and treatment protocols.
Chapters are packed with indexing and cross-references, offer a
fine outline format for emergency reference, and includes tables,
drug dosages, formulas and illustrations throughout. The result is
a fine pick for any veterinary or animal medical reference
library." (Midwest Book Reviews, 1 October
2012)
