Reviews

We have many BSAVA manuals on the shelf, but I can see myself needing this one more than most. Serious traumatic injuries can be very challenging and can take many of us out of our comfort zone. This manual provides a comfort blanket of experience, knowledge and techniques that I know many will benefit from having available in the practice library. If you don't have the latest edition, treat yourselves to it now. - Vet Times, 2012
