Synopsis :
With the increasing domestication of animals worldwide, especially in developed countries, the importance of veterinary science is becoming more evident. Numerous studies have linked both domestic and commercial animal health to human health and it make sense that decreasing the occurrence and spread of disease in domestic animals would also decrease transmission of those diseases into humans. The field of veterinary science is broad and may focus on domestic or commercial animals, various breeds and species and specific diseases. This book introduces a broad range of topics in veterinary science including dermatology, inflammation, diet, influenza, pain and various forms of cancer. The animal species discussed in this book include felines, canines, sheep, goats, rabbits along with other animal species. To conclude, the Fundamentals of Veterinary Science mentions how animal health is closely linked to human health to highlight the importance of this field.
