Summary:

In its eighth edition, Diseases of Swine continues as the premier source of swine disease and production information, used around the world. Features include: extensively revised and updated chapters, easier-to-locate information, the expertise of 127 authoritative contributors, and full-color photographs in the chapter "Diseases of the Skin".

A new chapter on interpretation of laboratory results includes a clear, concise explanation of serologic testing and a listing of sensitivities and specificities for all important swine diseases, with guidelines for diagnostic sample size.

There is also a new chapter covering differential diagnosis of swine diseases, with comprehensive consideration given to possible infectious and noninfectious causes of clinical conditions in swine. Included are new and emerging agents and disease conditions as well as protocols and diagnostic plans for making a final diagnosis.

Equine encephalitis, which recently has been discovered to affect swine, and Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome virus (PRRS) are covered in new chapter.
