Functional Anatomy and Physiology of Domestic Animals

‘The book has a number of features that help in the delivery and retention of the information. The chapter overviews at the beginning of the chapters and the self-evaluation questions help focus students on the salient points of each unit. Second, the many figures help in explaining the concepts. And, third, the resources the accompanying website provides are relevant to the discussion.

This up-to-date overview of functional anatomy and physiology is a good book for students interested in veterinary sciences or thinking they’d like to pursue veterinary medicine … it provides a good starting foundation for students serious about pursuing careers in veterinary medicine, where structure and function are central to the curriculum.’ Doody’s, November 2017
