Following in the footsteps of the first edition, this revision will serve as a first-line management resource, provide strong advocacy for advancing quality animal welfare and science worldwide, and continue as a valuable seminal reference for those engaged in all types of programs involving animal care and use. It has more than doubled the number of chapters in the original volume to present a more comprehensive overview of the current breadth and depth of the field with applicability to an international audience. Readers will be provided with the latest information and resource and reference materials from authors who are noted experts in their field.
