The 12th updated edition represents an extensive update and overhaul by Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA)  5 Stars
November 15, 2008
Any college-level veterinary medicine library and any practicing vet working with farm animals must have DISEASES OF POULTRY. The 12th updated edition represents an extensive update and overhaul and packs in over 1300 pages of facts, from articles on various types of infections and their treatment to diagnosis, management, and flock health. It's the most extensive reference on the market and will easily prove a vet's 'bible' of information for poultry management many a farmer with a flock will need it, as well.
