Former veterinary advisor for a major pet food manufacturer and former an examiner for the RCVS VN Scheme. light-hearted, easily 'digestible' read.. I am really enjoying it!" Dot Creighton, Training Officer, Goddard Veterinary Group, London. chapter covering mathematics relating to energy I thought was particularly well covered. The calculations were easy to follow."
