The book offers introductory chapters covering a variety of areas of laboratory animal use, as well as chapters on the management and care of over 30 different taxa of animals commonly utilised in scientific procedures and research around the world. It also provides:
- A thorough introduction to the design of animal experiments, laboratory animal genetics, and the phenotyping of genetically modified mice
- Comprehensive explorations of animal welfare assessment and the ethical review process
- Practical discussions of legislation and oversight of the conduct of research using animals from a global perspective
- In-depth examinations of the planning, design, and construction of efficient animal facilities, special housing arrangements, and nutrition, feeding, and animal welfare
