The clarity and accuracy of the illustrations, designed to make the explanations given to owners easier to understand and less time consuming, turn this atlas into another useful clinical tool.

Newcastle disease is a contagious bird disease that affects many domestic and wild avian species in which has a great economic and ecologic impact. Besides, it is transmissible to humans, so that it is convenient to extreme caution and to take appropriate measures to avoid its spreading. This disease supposes a worldwide severe problem in lots of countries in which it has not been completely controlled, thus it is essential to know the most important features which make it very dangerous in poultry farming. Moreover, it has been used as an anticancer agent and a potential biological weapon, so that researches with this virus have been numerous in the last decades. Generally speaking, in veterinary medicine, it is necessary to perform an updated and gra-phic review about it. To make it easier, the author, a prestigious specialist in this field, has developed a thorough study in a didactic and visual way. The inclusion of images, tables, graphs and even flowcharts focuses the reader?s attention on this topic. These graphic resources are accompanied by a short text to make the handbook understandable.

This book deals with pain in companion animals and how it affects their welfare, health and, of course, behaviour. It describes the difficulties encountered, throughout history, to finally reach the conclusion that animals and humans share the same neurophysiological mechanisms to feel pain, and what their sensitive pathways are. It then goes deeper into the changes that pain can cause in the behaviour of dogs and cats and the tools available to the veterinary surgeon to control it. Good veterinary practice and professional ethics lead us to try to reduce pain in animals as much as possible. Having a book such as this one can help us achieve this objective.

This new volume of the collection presents the anatomical regionof the thorax. It describes the most common surgical procedures, for instance the thoracotomy or the placement of a thoracic drainage; and also the most complex ones like the placement of a transvalvular patch, the extraction of oesophagic foreign bodies, tracheal collapse treatment or innovative techniques such as cardioplasty in idiopatic megaesophagus cases. The high quality of its images, some of them come with diagrams and illustrations, allow an accurate description of the pathologies and their etiology.

Veterinary oncology is a specialty that is advancing at a very fastpace. This allows clinicians to have more and more resources at their disposal to treat their patients and, at the same time, requires them to have an in-depth and constantly updated knowledge of the subject.

Together with the essential aspects and the latest advances in oncology, this book includes a chapter about the most common specific neoplasms in daily practice, their protocols and recommended treatments, as well as several real clinical cases through which readers will be able to evaluate their knowledge of the subject.

Having images of the pathologies when carrying out a diagnosis is undoubtedly highly appreciated by vets, especially in dermatology consultation. Thanks to this atlas, vets will be able to look at images of common skin pathologies and thus be acknowledged for their ?clinical eye?, but they will also be able to view non-typical images that will guide those uncommon cases. Furthermore, typical images that are exclusive of certain localisations of the body (face, perianal area,claws) have been included at the end of the book. Each chapter includes images of the general clinical picture of each disease, aetiopathogenesis of the lesions, diagnostic method and treatment.

This is a pioneering book in veterinary medicine. The reader will be ableto visualise what really is happening in a diseased heart. Through threedimensional representation and augmented reality, every disorder can be seen, almost touching the 3D model above the book. In addition, the changes in blood flow produced by the pathologies can be visualised, bringing the reader even closer to the pathophysiological reality. The text addresses the major points of pathophysiology and diagnostic keys for the most common diseases, and the illustrations and pictures are a bridge between the 3D models and the text. Thus, the book succeeds in joining diagnosis, and particularly a test such as echocardiography, with the understanding of the pathophysiology.
