Contains practical information for clinicians on management of allergic diseases
Includes fully-referenced high level detail suitable for specialists and researchers
Focused on evidence-based medicine and science
The editors have extensive experience and are respected as world-wide experts in the field
Every chapter is written by an expert in that particular topic
Anyone seeking information and references on any aspect of allergic conditions in any species should find this book helpful. The book will be of interest to clinicians in first opinion practice, specialists in veterinary dermatology, gastroenterology, internal medicine, and immunology as well as specialists-in-training in those fields and veterinary students.
The focus on underlying principles and practical clinical aspects is admirable. Immediately useful for practical utilization by practicing clinicians.
