Recenzii
Safe animal handling is a foundation of training for veterinarians, veterinary technicians, and veterinary assistants. With the popularity of various low stress training and certifications for veterinary staff it is always important to stay abreast of the latest in animal restraint. This handbook is an easy to use and practical guide for various species. I particularly found the exotic companion mammal, bird, and reptile sections of great interest. The artwork in the handbook adds to the text's descriptions so readers are not left self-interpreting how the technique should be performed. I appreciate the author's attention to not only human safety but also the welfare of the animals undergoing restraint.
I think this handbook would serve any veterinary professional or clinic well. I also think it is a great substitute for the larger animal restraint texts available as the conciseness highlights the material readers are often looking for.

This is an excellent textbook - I would even go to say an essential textbook for anyone interested or going into the animal care industry or interested in studying any animal management/welfare course. I have recommended this text to our librarian and undergraduates on the BSc degree course. The book is suitably designed outlining the handling and restraint methods that can be used along with suitable illustrations / photographs of the techniques. Pros and cons as well as considerations for animal and human welfare / safety are nicely described.
