Preserving the health of domestic animals in the tropics is a crucial issue. The first volume of Santé animale recalls the fundamental concepts of animal pathology and summarizes the main ways of controlling disease. It covers not only diseases caused by microorganisms, arthropods and helminths, but also metabolic diseases and others caused by toxins. It describes the signs of good health and symptoms of disease in the form of diagnostic keys. It includes tables to assist diagnosis in the main domestic animals, and ends with veterinary procedures, particularly the administration of drugs. The book is a crucial guide for anyone rearing or caring for animals in the tropics and subtropics, and can also be used as a teaching aid in higher education.
