The technology described is selected to emphasize the practical aspects of diagnosis and veterinary work rather than the theory. For additional information a list of references is provided at the end of each chapter.In addition to the above, the book is designed to be a guide for planners to make the best use of aid funding i.e. by addressing sustainability and durability of input i.e..human resources, buildings, equipment, transport .
