The Merck Veterinary Manual

Bought this for a good friend leaving for vet school, we both looked through it and it has literally every bit of information you could think of. Because of that, it's not crazy in-depth, but more of a quick info book for students. But it does have info on toxicology, pharmacology, pocket pets, a section for chickens, diseases, viruses, parasites and so much more. Will definitely be getting one for myself.

This is a reference manual for vetinarians. If you don't have a good grasp of medical knowledge, then get a medical dictionary ready. Also, the print is very small so you may need a magnifying glass.

One of the most Important text books

The media could not be loaded. It’s really very useful, especially for people that have to study for exams like I am. I’m not sure this would be of much use for a practitioner, it’s not very detailed because it covers so many contents. But would definitely recommend for someone who is still in college, just got out of college or is validating their diploma and have a lot of time to study.

Bought this for study prior to getting animals for our homestead... its full if information.My only complaint is the paper of the pages are so thin... it is definantly a refrence library book... not to ne taken into the feilds

Am a Veterinarian and nice easy to use reference book.

This book has everything (well most of everything) however it is very poorly made. The text is very tiny… which I can live with but the pages are so thin you can hardly turn a page without ripping a page.

I'm not a vet or a doctor but it does help when you have a ranch full of animals and the vet ask what it looks like and or how I might know what it could be if he can't make it out to check for me. Full of knowledge.
