Product Description
Joe Inglis, star of BBC 1's award-winning series "Vets in Practice" has written his diary for a year. It spans his first job after finishing training with a small Devonshire practice where farmyard crises loom large, to an urban one where domestic pets in trouble are more the norm - although he had to give the kiss of life to a snake on camera! Even the newly qualified, raw young vet, can see that there are good vets and bad, sound practice and short-cuts. Joe Inglis' diary is very amusing and full of incident - but also outspoken about some aspects of 'caring' for animals, the countryside and about people who keep animals. 'Funny and very touching' - "Family Circle." ... Read more

Well I'll be Dipped
This was an enjoyable, often humorous, journey with a contemporary first-year Veterinarian.The book was written by a Brit, for Brits, and published in London.This can lead to confusion if one is reading it on the other side of the Atlantic.I have resolved to procure one of the "British-American" translation dictionaries available here on Amazon.com- possibly "Divided by a Common Language" by Christopher Davies and Jason Murphy?Some examples of the confusion are: "locum" as in "I registered with a couple of locum agencies yesterday."And Auntie Em, I don't think we're talking about Dorothy's lovely blue and white ginghamnumber when Joe wears"Jumpers."

It was also interesting that there was no disclaimer, as frequently appearat the front of"true" North American books like Ann Rule's, saying something to the effect of "the names of the innocent and non-major players have been changed to protect their privacy."Joe, our rookie vet and author, doesn't do this, and frequently has unkind things to say about certain farmers and pet owners. Some things, unfortunately, do not change. He says: "About one in seven vets get sued in their first year in practice." Ouch!

Are there no laws or regulations governing the release of waste over there? Our new vet and longer-term surfer says: " I tried out a little reef break off the headland called "sewer pipe" by the locals, for obvious reasons.The break is directly out from the main sewage outfall from Westward Ho! And you have to time your surfing very carefully to avoid the times when they pump out the sewage, otherwise it gets pretty nasty!"

All in all it's an interesting "year in the life" story. His disclosures of some of the bad veterinarial practices of others are scary and cautionary to chose one's vet wisely.And I shall never eat veal again! ... Read more

Product Description
This book is intended to provide the first, complete, definitive reference text on dermatology of the cat and dog for veterinary surgeons and students published in the United Kingdom. It differs from the small numbers of other books published on this subject which are produced in brief note form, or as atlases, and from a larger expensive American text which is necessarily influenced by the veterinary experience in North America - this is not always applicable to practice in Europe. The text is concisely written and there are many line illustrations and photographs. It is written by two authors who pioneered the development of veterinary dermatology as a specialty in the early 1960s, and the subsequent development of the Dermatology Study Group of BSAVA. ...
