This new edition attempts to balance the need for additional information in these areas with the main goal of the first edition: the provision of an introductory text for new investigators. . New edition provides new information on anaesthesia and analgesia, and has an extensively revised and updated bibliography. . Provides a balanced consideration of the needs of scientific research and the welfare of laboratory animals. . Written by a veterinary anaesthetist and scientist with over 30 years experience in the field, and who is actively engaged in research in this area . Provides rapid, easily accessed information using tabulated summaries . Provides those with limited experience of anaesthesia with the information they need to carry our procedures effectively, safely, and humanely. . Provides sufficient depth for the more experienced anaesthetist moving to this field |
