Report
"Throughout this superbly illustrated textbook, the authors use a combination of histology, gross specimens, and many clinical examples to describe ocular diseases and their underlying pathophysiology...Overall, this book is a valuable and fairly priced resource for veterinary students, veterinarians, and pathologists." JAVMA, MAR 15, 2019, VOL 254, NO. 6
