 Good Reference March 31, 1999
13 out of 13 found this review helpful
This is a very thorough book, although Rupley's manual of avian practice is a more practical and up to date reference for the clinician. Altman's book is a little vague in the pathology and sometimes too general for a book that should be an all-encompassing reference.
 Outstanding for Bird Owners May 25, 1998
9 out of 11 found this review helpful
This book is outstanding for bird owners who desire to know more about their pets. This book is quite technical in nature, and needs a person who knows a little about anatomy and physiology in order to get the most out of this book. For me, the investment of the high price was worth it.
