Comparative Veterinary Anatomy: A Clinical Approach describes the comprehensive, clinical application of anatomy for veterinarians, veterinary students, allied health professionals and undergraduate students majoring in biology and zoology. The book covers the applied anatomy of dogs, cats, horses, cows and other farm animals, with a short section on avian/exotics, with a focus on specific clinical anatomical topics. The work improves the understanding of basic veterinary anatomy by making it relevant in the context of common clinical problems. This book will serve as a single-source reference on the application of important anatomical structures in a clinical setting.

Students, practitioners and specialists will find this information easy-to-use and well-illustrated, thus presenting an accurate representation of essential anatomical structures that relates to real-life clinical situations in veterinary medicine.

He is co-editor of Equine Emergencies: Treatment and Procedures, which is in its fourth edition and published in seven languages. Dr. Orsini's current research interests are in understanding the pathophysiology of laminitis, prevention, and improved treatments.

Grenager, Nora S.
Nora Grenager is an equine internal medicine specialist currently at University College Dublin in Ireland. Dr. Grenager received her BA from Amherst College, her VMD from the University of Pennsylvania, and then completed her internship and internal medicine residency at Steinbeck Country Equine Clinic in Salinas, California.

Dr. Grenager recently published Comparative Veterinary Anatomy: A Veterinary Approach with co-editors Dr. James Orsini and the late Dr. Alexander de Lahunta. She is co-editor of the upcoming 5th edition of Equine Emergencies with Dr. James Orsini. She has published on equine endocrinopathic laminitis, ultrasonographic findings with right dorsal displacement of the large colon, links between temporohyoid osteoarthropathy and cribbing, gastric ulcers, and Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis infection; edited a case series on equine tick-borne diseases; and has guest or proof-edited numerous other publications. She has been actively involved in the veterinary profession via positions in associations such as the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine, The Northern California Association of Equine Practitioners, The International Laminitis Conference, and the American Veterinary Medical Association.
