The much anticipated second edition of this highly acclaimed book is now available. It has been expanded to 368 pages and almost 700 figures, including light, scanning and transmission electron micrographs. It retains the hardback specialty-bound format of the first edition, but it is now in full colour on high quality non-reflective paper (silk, 130 gsm), with integrated text and figures, and it has a larger page size of 195 x 273mm in order to make best use of the illustrations, some of which are half or full page. Numerous high quality images of fish have been used to separate and introduce the chapters, in order to enhance readability and overall appearance. As before, the book is not intended to be simply a list of aetiologies found in various species under differing environments. Instead, the systemic approach to understanding disease has been maintained, with chapters on all organ systems, and descriptions on how involved tissues respond to a variety of insults. With the addition of an extra chapter on pathophysiology, there are now 14 chapters overall, each with selected references. There has been no compromise on quality in the production of this book, and a serious attempt has been made to blend aesthetics with scientific rigour and ease of use.
