This book is informative and concise. I learned alot and it was easy to understand. As a horse owner, I appreciated the tips for prevention. As a vet student, I appreciated the detailed information regarding the origin of certain types of colic. Buy this book!

The book has good information. It's easy to read. The book I received had a different cover page, other than that it's a good book.

Great book. Very helpful. Sorry for not posting sooner!
