This is a concise yet comprehensive text of all the common and rarer diseases found in all species of poultry (including chickens, ducks, turkeys, game birds and guinea-fowl). The book focuses on both the specific disease organisms and the more general aspects of the poultry industry, and provides a wide coverage of the whole subject area, thus making the book suitable for veterinarians (both general practitioners and those involved in the poultry industry), pathologists, veterinary inspectors and agriculture managers involved in running poultry farms. For each disease, the Prevalence, Genetic Factors, Epidemiology, Clinical Signs and Differential Diagnosis, Pathogenesis, Treatment and Control are discussed in detail. Greatly expanded sections on Public Health and Food Safety, Toxins and Poisons, and all Management aspects are included in the new edition, as well as new coverage of the Hatchery, Egg Quality, Heat Stress and Probiotics. A new chapter on Game Birds is also included for the first time. This fully revised and expanded edition will be an invaluable resource for the practicing veterinarian, poultry inspector or agricultural manager.
