Appalled at the damage done by existing "brute force" calving methods, the author pioneered caesarean section in 1945, following it up with a study of natural bovine birth. The results of this study and the techniques which evovled from it form the basis of this book.

Essentially a veterinary surgeon, the author has always specialized in obstetrics. Appalled at the damage done by existing "brute force" calving methods, he pioneered caesarean section in 1945 - a technique now practised throughout the world. He followed this up with a study of natural bovine birth. The results of this study and the techniques which evovled from it form the basis of this book. This fifth edition features a concise, clear text built around a large number of specially taken photographs.

Eddie Straiton is the world's outstanding communicator of veterinary procedures and animal care. He earned the title 'TV Vet' from the long series of television programmes in which he brilliantly demonstrated animal husbandry to a wide audience. Eddie has recently been awarded and OBE for his contribution to agriculture and veterinary science.
