Sheep Flock Health: a planned approach is a practical guide to the diagnosis and management of production limiting diseases in sheep. The problem-based approach helps both farmers and veterinary practitioners identify health problems. The focus is on good management practices to prevent disease in the first place and to optimise production. Focuses on the achievement and maintenance of optimal productivity, rather than on a catalogue of individual diseases of sheep. Written by an expert with a strong international reputation. Suitable not only for veterinarians and veterinary students, but also progressive sheep farmers.

Neil Sargison is a senior lecturer at the Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies, Large Animal Practice. He holds the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons diploma in sheep health and production and is a fellow of the RCVS. He has an excellent reputation as a farm animal veterinarian, clinical researcher and teacher, both in the UK and internationally.
