REVIEWS

“While the reviewer does not see this text as necessarily beneficial to all veterinary technicians, for veterinarians and those who are fortunate enough to be involved within a laparoscopic “practice” of dealing with equines, this book is a must have. For this reason I rate the book a 4 out of 5 star rating.”  (The VIN Book Reviews,6 September2013)
