Diseases of Poultry is the
most comprehensive reference for all aspects of poultry health and
diseases, including pathogenesis, diagnostics, epidemiology, and control
methods. Published in partnership with the American Association of
Avian Pathologists, the Thirteenth Edition remains the international
definitive reference, adding newer diagnostic methods and a new chapter
on the emerging importance of zoonotic infections for poultry pathogens.
Other updates include new high-quality photographs, additional
discussion of conceptual operational biosecurity and disease control in
organic production systems, and a greater emphasis throughout on the
differences in disease incidence and treatments for the United States
and other areas around the globe.
Organized logically by disease
type, the book offers detailed coverage of the history, etiology,
pathobiology, diagnosis, and intervention strategies, as well as the
economic and public health significance, for an exhaustive list of
common and uncommon diseases. Diseases of Poultry, 13th Edition is
an essential purchase for poultry veterinarians, veterinary
diagnosticians, poultry scientists, students specializing in poultry
health, and government officials who deal with poultry health in
regulatory climate.
