5 Stars! “The book’s purpose is to describe the pathogenesis and distinguishing features of domestic animal diseases in a manner that students and practicing pathologists can understand and learn from [and] exceeds expectations for meeting this purpose.... Anyone seeking to better understand domestic animal diseases will also be well-served with this book.… The authors are some of the most credible experts in the world. This 3- volume, organ system-based textbook is one of the most complete single sources available for veterinary pathology in domestic animals. The seventh edition has a few marked improvements in chapters while maintaining the same overall informational excellence and structure… The most notable improvements come in the nervous system and cardiovascular system chapters. There are no poor chapters in this book… This is the single-best source for studying and understanding domestic animal disease. I recommend this book for anyone looking to attain knowledge of pathologic processes in domestic animals.” Review by Jonathan Samuelson, DVM MS (University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine), ©Doody's Review Service, 2026.
