BSAVA's popular Companion series includes chapters on techniques, diagnostic pathways and management approaches.
Third edition contains articles published between 2016 and 2020

The third edition of BSAVA’s popular Companion series has been published as a loyalty reward gift for members.

The ‘How to... collected articles from BSAVA Companion’ series contains a selection of articles published in Companion between 2016 and 2020. Covered within the 40 chapters include techniques, diagnostic pathways and management approaches. 

Editor of Companion, Samantha Taylor, said: “At Companion, we strive to produce well-illustrated, practical articles to help vets and VNs in practice face the day-to-day challenges of a varied caseload. We hope this collection meets our aims by covering a variety of clinical problems from hypercalcaemia in cats to managing the snuffly rabbit, from Leishmaniasis to lymphoma and many more.

"Whether kept on the shelf for when needed or thumbed through over a cup of tea, we hope that within the pages of this new volume you find a useful tip or technique that helps.”

BSAVA senior vice president Ian Ramsey, who wrote the foreword for the book, said: “This collection represents a unique body of well-illustrated work prepared by experts from all around the UK and beyond. I would like to thank them all on behalf of BSAVA members and readers of this book for taking the time and care to develop these resources for their colleagues around the world.”

As well as being a reward gift for members, How to…collected articles from BSAVA Companion (2016–2020), 3rd edition is also available from the BSAVA website  priced at £20.
