Synopsis

Produced primarily for students undertaking qualifications in red meat inspection, this fully illustrated book guides the reader through pig anatomy and physiology before explaining the cause and nature of disease. Further chapters graphically describe diseases and conditions encountered in pigs including parasites and tumours, and include a chapter on conditions found at the abattoir with suggested judgements as to fitness for human consumption. Revision guides covering anatomy, condition and cause and a basic diagnostic aid complete the volume.

This second edition has over 100 more full colour photographs that make this an invaluable tool for all those for whom knowledge of porcine anatomy, diseases and other conditions is required, including veterinary surgeons and meat inspectors within the abattoir, and also pig producers who will be receiving condemnation data from these establishments. In this edition the sections on parasites, neoplasia and conditions found at postmortem inspection have been expanded.
