Veterinary Pathophysiology focuses on the recognition and prevention of early dysfunction. It gives attention to understanding the functional changes that accompany disease, and offers insight into the interaction of the functional components of the mammalian body and their reaction not only to disease, but also to the risk of imbalances introduced by dietary and therapeutic manipulation.
Veterinary Pathophysiology offers the most comprehensive introduction to understanding the interactions between organs and functional systems that underly infectious and metabolic diseases.
