    This handy "how-to" guide provides a practical framework for diagnosis and treatment of common, small animal gastrointestinal disorders, filling the gap left by larger, encyclopedic references. It features a complete review of symptoms and diagnostic methods, descriptions of digestive tract disorders by organ system, and a series of sample GI cases. Logically organized into three easy-reference sections and expertly written by recognized specialists, this complete, expanded edition is a valuable clinical tool for primary care practitioners.

• The familiar handbook format, based primarily on organs of the gastrointestinal tract, offers quick access to key information.
• Coverage of symptoms, nutrition, and chronic and acute disorders presents a thorough discussion of gastroenterology.

• A new diagnostic modality (BIPS) is covered, detailing this useful technique for general practice applications.
• A glossary of GI drugs educates the reader on the most current terminology.
• The chapter on Enteral and Parenteral Nutrition has been completely revised with several new illustrations, for a more complete discussion of this important topic.
• A new, complete chapter on Neoplasia, written by an expert oncologist, draws together all relevant discussions on neoplasia throughout the book into one comprehensive, coherent treatment.

    Spirochaete bacteria are commonly found in the gastro-intestinal tracts of animals. A number of intestinal spirochaete species are now recognized as a cause of disease in a variety of animal species, including pigs, poultry, and humans. This book is the first to review the literature on these important bacteria and the diseases they cause. It aims to bring together the available information from different disciplines, on different animal host species, so as to provide an overview of current understanding in the area. A major purpose is to summarize and clarify what is known, and to identify what needs further study in this emerging field. By doing this, it is hoped to streamline, stimulate, and improve the effectiveness of collaborative research on these bacteria and associated diseases. Written by leading authorities from North America, Europe, and Australia, the book is aimed at research workers, advanced students and clinicians in general in medical and veterinary microbiology....
