New Edition news
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
Just a note from the author to let you know that a new edition has been produced, published in January 2003 and is now available. The new edition is based on the format of the first edition but has been changed considerably in places to reflect new research and knowledge.Many people have told me that the old edition is an excellent teaching book for degree students and reference book for practionners and Veterinary surgeons - I am very grateful for their encouraging comments. I hope that this new edition will proove to be just as valuable.Please note I have also written a more specialist book entitled Equine AI and published by the same publishers CABI.
A Must Have Book For Every Serious Breeder
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
The book has good visual aids and is well written. The only drawback is the British English Terminology. The book is a must have for any breeder and is worth while for the pro and indispensible for the novice.
