Features: The main feature of this book is to break through disciplinary boundaries. It discards the traditional classification of cattle and horse diseases (internal medicine, surgery, obstetrics, infectious diseases, parasitic diseases) and groups together cattle and horse diseases with similar main clinical symptoms. It is divided into 15 chapters, including Salivation, Difficulty in Chewing and Swallowing, Abnormal Grazing (Rumination), Hernia Pain without Defecation, Diarrhea, Nasal Discharge, Wheezing and Respiratory Abnormalities, Jaundice (Yellowing), Pallor, Weight Loss, Excitement, Depression, Paralysis, Urinary Abnormalities, Diseases of Female Livestock, Diseases of Male Livestock, Diseases of Young Livestock, Ophthalmic Diseases, Skin Abnormalities (Papules, Itching, Hair Loss), Abnormal Skin Morphology, Trauma, and Limb Movement Abnormalities and Lameness, among others. It introduces 360 common diseases, detailing the causes, clinical symptoms, pathological changes, diagnostic key points, differential diagnosis, and prevention and treatment measures for each disease. For each disease, it lists some diseases that are clinically similar but have differences, to facilitate differentiation. This book is highly practical and valuable for grassroots veterinarians with years of clinical experience but lacking theoretical training, or for veterinarians who have recently graduated and are working in clinical settings.
