The overall theme of the book as well as the listingof several new pathogens provides tremendous information onpotential emerging disease situations. The flow of the bookis outstanding, starting with the informative chapter on herdevaluation. I highly recommend this book as an outstandingreference to anyone associated with modern swine production,especially practitioners." (Journal of The AmericanVeterinary Medical Association, 16 September 2012)

"This book has been extensively rewritten with many newcontributors adding to the wealth of global knowledge . . . Thebook is rather US-biased in its authorship but , despite this , the10th edition is an essential addition to the library of anyveterinary surgeon , adviser to the pig industry or serious farmerwho deals with pigs." (Veterinary Record, 17November 2012)

"This is the primary reference on swine disease managementfor veterinarians and students. As the only complete, currentreference, it is a must-have for people working in thisarea." (Doody's, 14 September 2012)
