The BSAVA/VPIS Guide to Common Canine and Feline Poisons is a handy almost (not quite) lab-coat pocket-sized tool for triaging small animal poisoning cases...As a practitoner I feel that the best application of this book is triaging cases over the phone... I can collect as much information as possible, refresh myself on key elements of treatment and - if necessary - seek additional information while the animal is in transit to the vet. - from a review in Control and Therapy Series, September 2012
