"""This is a well-written and well-organized book. It provides students, veterinarians, and scientists with an invaluable, evidence-based guide to arthropod-borne pathogens and their associated diseases. This fully updated edition captures recent advances in the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of arthropod-borne infectious diseases that are important in dogs and cats."" - William Harold Witola, PhD, MSc, BVM (University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine), Doody Book Review Service In the past years, arthropod-borne infectious diseases are gaining more importance in companion animal veterinary medicine. Due to intensified migration of small animals and climate changes, these diseases are no longer present only in their ""traditionally"" endemic areas, they are spreading to other parts of Europe where they never existed before. The book Arthropod-borne Infectious Diseases of the Dog and Cat was edited by professor Michael Day – a living legend of veterinary science in the fields of immunology and clinical pathology. This book is aimed at practitioners, emphasizing clinical signs, diagnostics, therapy and the control of vector-borne diseases. Besides that, the book can also be of use to students of veterinary medicine, because of its simple, effective and understandable approach to the basics in immunology and pathogenesis of infectious diseases in general. All veterinary practitioners in Europe should be familiar with this issue, even though they have never seen some of those diseases. For that reason Arthropod-borne Infectious Diseases of the Dog and Cat is a must-have book for a practitioner’s professional library. -- Nenad Milojković, DVM (Serbia), in FECAVA, June 2019 The book has contributions from leading researchers and is right up to date… It is well-written, easy-to-read and gives useful background. This book will be useful for veterinary students and early career researchers as well as small animal practitioners. —Diana Williams, Veterinary Parasitology Research Group, in Veterinary Record Jan 2018 Praise for previous editions: ""The authors have gathered top-notch specialists to cover some of the topics... not only should you get this book, you must read it carefully."" —The Veterinary Times ""This beautifully illustrated and comprehensive book should be in every practice library."" —The Veterinary Record ""This is a well-written and well-organized book.
