About the Book
This book covers introductory topics in the discussion of aquatic animal health and medicine. Complementing veterinary programs that emphasize terrestrial species, this introductory textbook explores the concept that any animal is a potential patient when a veterinarian obtains the essential foundational knowledge. The focus of this first volume is fin fish common in ponds and aquariums.
