It is of high quality and moderate complexity...The editors are to be commended for including a chapter on the strong ion approach to acid-base in veterinary patients. This feature is still lacking in many books, despite the wide scientific acceptance of the strong ion approach. It is often omitted for its mathematical complexity and potential lack of utility, but the author of that chapter does a good job of explaining the easy utility of strong ion difference clinically even if the total strong ion approach remains out of reach practically.\" (\u003cb\u003eDoody Enterprises\u003c\/b\u003e 17\/03\/2017)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Too often, veterinarians expect the veterinary technicians working alongside them to aid in patient care without a complete understanding of the complex pathophysiology of the disease or condition that is affecting the patient.
