The second editions of The Laboratory Swine and The Laboratory
Rabbit are enhanced with full color illustrations. Both books have
an extensively updated section on anesthesia, analgesia and use of
humane techniques in animal research. The Laboratory Swine also
provides new information on the use of genetically modified swine.
Both new additions are valuable additions to the laboratory animal
library collection.
—Nanette Kleinman, in ACLAM Newsletter, September 2010This second
edition provides a multitude of information that is greatly aided
by the use of many color photographs. It would be a valuable
addition to facility libraries that are readily available to animal
technicians and caretakers.
