"This book fulfils its role very well and actually goes
beyond the essentials without being overwhelming. It is a
good resource at an affordable price that will be useful for
veterinary students, veterinarians, veterinary technicians,
interns, and residents alike." (Journal of The
American Veterinary Medical Association, 16 September 2012)

"This information will allow young practitioners to be
able to communicate with staff members and owners about the
benefits of pain management in pets. It will also equip them to be
able to explain the methods for improving comfort in pets which can
sometimes include massage and acupuncture."
(Tomorrow's Vets, 1 January 2013)

"Overall, this is a helpful review and quick reference for
all veterinary professionals and students. Unlike other books
covering anesthesia, this one provides a basic and quick reference
guide that is an excellent resource for students and veterinary
professionals alike." (Doody's, 27 April
2012)

"All in all, it's a nice little textbook that I expect will look
as well thumbed as the BSAVA's drug formulary within a few months."
(Veterinary Record, 20 November 2011)

"This book should be a part of every student's library, whether
veterinary or technician. I extend many thanks to Wiley-Blackwell
for giving me the opportunity to read and review this excellent
textbook." (Examiner.com, 31 October 2011)
