The Veterinary Book for Sheep Farmers is a wide-ranging manual on sheep diseases which offers to increase productivity and profitability by improving the standard of husbandry and upgrading the health status of the flock.

David Henderson stresses the understanding of the causes and development of disease so that a full prevention programme can be planned. A major section describes the latest techniques for fertility control. Quick reference pages offer action checklists at key points in the shepherd's year.

Appendices cover such basic but essential techniques as dipping procedures. This manual is for sheep farmers but has also been prepared with the needs of agricultural and veterinary students in mind.
