University of Illinois, Urbana

ABSTRACT

As indicated by the title, the book is an outline of preventive veterinary medicine. It is a very extensive outline and covers anatomy, physiology, endocrinology, reproduction, microbiology, nutrition, pharmacology, environmental factors, stress, and immunology. Diseases of the various systems, acute generalized infectious diseases, parasitology, including internal and external parasites and intoxications caused by insecticides are included in the outline. The outline on infectious disease includes etiology, influencing factors, symptomatology, prophylaxis, public health aspects of the disease, and preventive measures. Management and sanitation, including disinfection, are outlined in detail. The outline is so comprehensive that if covered in detail it would be an abridged course in veterinary medicine. To use all of the outline and cover it in detail would require courses extending over several terms.
