The American Association of Swine Veterinarians is pleased to announce the publication of the 5th edition of the Swine Disease Manual, edited by Drs Eric Neumann, Alex Ramirez, and Kent Schwartz. Orders for the book are being accepted for immediate shipment at http://ecom.aasv.org/sdm.
As in the previous edition, the book provides a concise overview of diseases and syndromes affecting swine. It serves as an informative reference for students, practitioners, producers, and others working in the swine industry. The new publication reflects the many changes that have occurred in the ten years since the 4th edition was released, including updated information on African swine fever, Senecavirus A, and swine enteric coronavirus diseases.
The softcover book is 191 pages of text, indexed, and includes a section on swine industry terminology and a handy chart of common abbreviations. A concluding section of tables serves as a valuable resource to identify and compare possible disease agents affecting a specific body system.
