Reviews
"Overall, this is a nice book to have as a reference. It is updated and has better images than the previous version, and the color-coded pages are helpful when using it as a quick reference. It includes a great deal of information that sometimes is a detriment to "quickness.""-Brittany Perry, BS, DVM(University of Illinois Veterinaty Medcine Teaching Hospital) Doddy Review: 83/100

Book condition
An important factor of a second-hand book is the condition of the book. The buyer may not be surprised. Always mention damages or defects. We use a system with 3 stars:
The book is acceptable: you have used it to study and made notes and markings – but everything is still readable. The cover and pages are in good condition.
The book still looks good: there are a few notes in it and you marked it. There are hardly any signs of use on the cover and pages
The book is (almost) new: you have not written or marked in it. There are no signs of use on the cover and pages
