“This edition is well indexed and referenced and is a great practice reference.”  (JAVMA, 15 December 2014)

“There are many color photos in this edition, with a strong emphasis on histopathology. This book stands alone as a complete and comprehensive book on ferrets, and a new edition after 16 years is certainly justified.”   (Doody’s, 9 January 2015)

“In conclusion, The Biology and the Diseases of the Ferret, 3rd edition is a valuable resource because of the breadth and scope of information covered.  Members of the private practice and laboratory animal communities will find it a useful addition to their libraries.”  (Laboratory Animal Practitioner, 1 October 2014)
