Bridging the gap between basic and clinical science concepts, Engelking's Textbook of Veterinary Physiological Chemistry, Fourth Edition offers broad coverage of biochemical principles for students and practitioners of veterinary medicine.

The only recent biochemistry book written specifically for the veterinary field, this updated text covers cellular-level concepts related to whole-body physiologic processes in a reader-friendly, approachable manner.

Each chapter is written in a succinct and concise style that includes an overview summary section, numerous illustrations for best comprehension of the subject matter, targeted learning objectives, and end of the chapter study questions to assess understanding.

With numerous illustrations and both instructor and student companion websites with updated PowerPoint images, lecture slides, and Snapcasts, Engelking's Textbook of Veterinary Physiological Chemistry, Fourth Edition, proves useful to students and lecturers from diverse educational backgrounds.

Sectional exams and updated case studies extend the breadth and depth of learning resources.
