This book is great but sometimes it's too much especially if you are just starting out. The online aspect is okay, not that searchable and certainly not readable from an online perspective (can't scroll page by page.)

I though this book was everything as a new grad, but now I must admit it can be hard to look stuff up in, especially if you are looking for treatment options, prognosis, differential dxs.I have found the clinical veterinary advisor to be significantly more useful and readable.

very good book,comprehensive and organized.it is too big to carry around and read in a bus but this is small disadvantage.if you want to know everything for small animal's internal medicine you need this book.

this thing made my homework a breeze. I like having everything all in one handy source. I highly recommend it

This is the perfect book for vets and veterinary students. They are very actualized and give explanations about the diseases and diagnosis in detail.

happy to have this heavy duty reference for the pets I have.

I have received it exactly on time, as it was planned! Congratulations to .com. I'm really looking foward reading through it. I'll give you some new feedback as soon as I get more familiar with it!

Book was for my daughter. She says for those that need it it is invaluable!
