BSAVA Manual of Exotic Pets, A Foundation Manual, 5th Edition

By Anna Meredith and Cathy Johnson Delaney

This remains the Foundation Manual for information across the range of exotic pets, from small mammals, through birds, reptiles and amphibians, to invertebrates. Commoner pets, such as rabbits, rodents and budgies retain their place. However, the ever-increasing range of non-traditional pets encountered by the veterinary surgeon in practice is reflected in coverage of some new groups, such as marsupials, ratites and crocodilians.

“The fifth edition of the manual of exotic pets is a worthy addition to the range of BSAVA’s manuals, and remains a ‘must-have’ for the veterinary practice library, promoting good care and treatment of exotic pets”. (Veterinary Record, 20 November 2010)

“The book is well illustrated, and good use is made of tables for the species’ biological data, laboratory data, common diseases and drug formularies . . . The fifth edition of the manual of exotic pets is a worthy addition to the range of BSAVA’s manuals, and remains a ‘must-have’ for the veterinary practice library, promoting good care and treatment of exotic pets.” (Veterinary Record, 20 November 2010)
