"A must for every surgeon willing to go beyond the simple
removal of a lump!." (Vet Nurses Today, 1
January 2013)

"It is a welcome addition to my bookshelf and I would
recommend it to others without hesitation."
(Veterinary Record, 16 February 2013)

"This book is highly informative and an excellent aid to
practicing surgeons. The quality and completeness of the
information is unparalleled in the veterinary textbook literature.
The book excels because of its inclusion of previously neglected
conditions, the handy and applicable summary of published
recommendations for treatment, and the quality and quantity of
detailed illustrations demonstrating surgical
technique." (Doody's, 4 January 2013)
