The book begins with an overview of rabbit husbandry. Nutritional requirements and clinical examination are covered in chapters 2 and 3. Subsequent chapters then take a body system approach to describing diseases, their diagnosis and treatment. There are separate chapters on behaviour, anaesthesia and surgery, and zoonotic aspects.
This practical, quick-reference guide will appeal to veterinarians, veterinary students, veterinary nurses and breeders alike.

Reviews
"No other rabbit book that I have ever read comes close to challenging this book - it is thoroughly recommended to all." (Nibbling News)
"This book definitely deserves a place on practice shelves...an extremely useful text for general practitioners." (Veterinary Record)
"This text is a welcome addition to the library of the practicing veterinarian. It is, in my opinion, a fine book with coverage of some areas not commonly covered in other texts. The chapter on nutrition is especially valuable. Purchase is recommended." (Thomas J. Burke, DVM, MS, @Doody's Review Service)
