Rezensionen

"This is a book which the VBJ heartily recommends to readers".
Veterinary Business Journal

"This textbook holds several features which make it a very valuable reference for the practitioner, particularly those established in the UK. It covers the entire scope of Practice Management in a concise, easy to read and yet comprehensive way. The book should be a tremendous help to any practitioner starting in practice, particularly those working with companion animals."
