This book cannot guarantee to convert you to a fan of acid-base and fluid balance, but it will certainly enlighten you. This is the fourth edition of what many consider to be the definitive work on fluid, electrolytes and acid-base disorders in dogs and cats; it is an invaluable reference book for clinicians...For those in possession of the third edition of the book, this fourth edition, on first presentation, appears remarkably similar.

It contains useful and accurate information, is generally well written and comprehensively covers a range of issues regarding fluid therapy and small animal medicine...the latest edition provides some additional information and clinical updates over the third edition. These include contemporary therapies such as vasopressin antagonists in conditions such as cardiac and liver failure."

Book condition
An important factor of a second-hand book is the condition of the book. The buyer may not be surprised. Always mention damages or defects. We use a system with 3 stars:
The book is acceptable: you have used it to study and made notes and markings – but everything is still readable. The cover and pages are in good condition.
The book still looks good: there are a few notes in it and you marked it. There are hardly any signs of use on the cover and pages
The book is (almost) new: you have not written or marked in it. There are no signs of use on the cover and pages
