'This book promised to fill the gap of the missing text book on the history of veterinary medicine. It does! Summaries and questions provoke students to think critically. However, this book is more than only a textbook. This is the profession I've dedicated most of my professional life to as students will do overtime. The story starts with the animal healers in ancient times and goes up to the regulated veterinary professional today. The authors outline a little bit of our future. A Concise History of Veterinary Medicine will be the perfect birthday present for all my veterinary friends.' Rens van Dobbenburgh, President Federation of Veterinarians of Europe

Informed by the study of human-animal relationships, and drawing on the latest research findings, A Concise History of Veterinary Medicine is essential reading for vets and historians alike.'
