A comprehensive evaluation of anesthesia and analgesia for commonly and uncommonly held laboratory animal species, with expanded sections on ethics and legislation that govern animals used in laboratory settings; this work provides detailed references and description for a broad range of laboratory housed animals, from invertebrates to nonhuman primates, which greatly expand upon previous editions. It also offers in-depth coverage of ethical, regulatory, and scientific considerations,… including drug monographs, equipment, and procedural care of laboratory animals…. The comprehensive nature of the text, clear organization, and excellent and up-to-date references make this an extremely useful book.
