The original aim of the book - to serve as a guide for practicing veterinarians and a learning aid for students - has not changed since the first edition. The editors and authors have made an effort to convey practical aspects of udder diseases, bovine obstetrics and gynecology, as well as andrology and artificial insemination to the readers. Particularly current areas, such as biotechnology and herd management, have been expanded in accordance with their significance. Primarily, personal experiences have been taken into account, without neglecting the new relevant literature. May the book "Buiatrics" be a useful aid for practicing veterinarians in their daily work and serve as a companion for students during lectures, clinical demonstrations, and exam preparations.
